1/48 Spitfire Mk 1a - Airfix
Ok so it is here the first of many 1/48 Spitfire's. This one represents P9495 of 610 (County of Chester) Sqdn at Biggin Hill in July 1940. Cockpit was upgraded with an Eduard zoom set FE359. And I also added brake lines and used reflective tape on the rear view mirror. http://i1247.photobucket.com/a...

Re: Airfix 1/48 Spitfire Mk 1a
That is reviewed to be a very nice kit. Especially for the price. How do you like it? I'm loving it so much so I want to get a couple more. And thank you Rick. Today's work on the Spit. http://i1247.photobucket.com/albums/gg629/treadheaddarren71/DSC_7731_zps09c905a7.jpg http://i1247.photobucket.com...
