This vintage 1970s 1/48 dh-10 was a birthday present from Carlos. Thank you so much, sir! I was truly surprised when this came in the mail, and I am truly appreciative. Thank you for all that you do to support others in the hobby and thank you for this wonderful gift.

[Stuart]

That's really cool Bruce - well done Carlos!

[Medicman71]

Wow! That's really cool.

[Brandons_Iron]

Wow! That's awesome. Happy birthday!! Cool gift. That rocks! Well done, Carlos!!

[Stikpusher]

Once again, a belated Happy Birthday Bruce! Over the years Bruce has sent me some very generous gifts now and again, and it was time to return the favor again

So.... been bitten by the 1/48th WWII British fighter bug...

The Airfix mk.I Spitfire is for a comparison build with the Tamiya kit I'm currently building. The Hurricane and Defiant I thought would be good companions to the BofB Spitfire. The Mk.IX... well it's a Mk.IX. I thought it would be interesting to build Airfix's latest Spitfire kit. I have some decals on the way for this as I don't like the ones in the kit.





Cheers!

Great haul Stuart! I did the MK 1 defiant a few years back - great kit. I have that Hurricane in the stash as well.

That's good to know John. I remember the 1/72 version being good so I'm glad the bigger version is good also.
