Thanks Johnny. I have their newer but flawed Mk. IX too in there. I may give that a shot too eventually.tempestjohnny wrote:Excellent of course. I built this exact kit eons ago. I know it isn't the newest but like you said builds up quite nicely. I think I have another in the stash, plus the Tamiya I, Airfix XIV, Airfix XII, Hmm I think I need to build a Spitfire

Can you fly this plane and land it? Surely you can't be serious? I am serious, and don't call me Shirley

Thanks. They switched to the Ocean Grey/Green in early 1941. It was Dark Earth/Greem before that.keavdog wrote:Very nice. I want to do a spit in that camo. Was that early war and they changed?

Thank you.BorgR3mc0 wrote:That maybe an “older” kit but that finish is great. And as the pictures show very appropriate.
