The
model is ICM 1/48th Spitfire IXc built basically out of the box. The camouflage
was painted freehand using Model Master II authentics. The codes were sprayed
using custom cut vinyl masks. The roundels and the finflashes were taken from an
Aeromaster RAF set. The serial and the badges were printed
on the Tango Papa Decal film using OKI DP-5000 printer.
