Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire Mk1

Superb looking builds!

That’s a nice trio of builds! Is that the new Tamiya Spitfire or the original one?

Nice work. Really like the ki 45.

Very nice!

The P 38 is typical Tamiya - everything fits. I especially liked the way they attached the gear doors - nice thick tabs that fit into slots. Nice and secure. Paints are Vallejo brushed. Came out pretty good.

The Ki 45 was a bit of a problem getting the wing fillets to fit properly - had to do quite a bit of sanding and filling. Also had fit problems with the engine cowls - more filler.I must have messed up because I've never had to use much filler on a ZM model and this is my fourth. Aside from that its a great kit.
