Hi all,
Here's my completed Spitfire Mk Vb. Built out of the box but with AM decals to represent a different aircraft than provided by Airfix.
Only took 9 months!
Thanks for looking and to those who followed the WIP!

Marvelous depiction of a iconic craft, even parked with wheels down they look fantastic.

Beautiful work. Stunning paint job.
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good.
