1/48 Spitfire Mk 1a - Airfix

Post by daz greenwood »

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.

Nice build, painting looks good. I think I see some silvering at some of the larger decals. A gloss coat before putting the decals on can solve a lot. And the use of setting agent. I often use white vinegar, it is cheap but works.
