1/24 Airfix Spitfire Mk I

--------------------

 

Yes another of Al Deere's Mk Is in 1/24 scale. Great kit allows you enough scratch modelling and yet offers the basics with modest use of putty.

Lots of wires and bits in the engine bay, scratch built radio, radio compartment, seat belts and bits in the cockpit, fuelling cap, electrics supply plug and gun bays. 

 

 

Enamels with pre shading and pastels plus silver paint and toothpick chipping and finally kit decals and glass paint for nav lights. 

Have left off the radio antennae wires which I shall do once I transport it to my display case. Thanx to my sister-in-law Pavithra who carted it all the way from NZ. Hope you like it.
