the first 'spit in my collection, this was a 1/72 scale FROG kit I built back in 2010; It was lost in the great Shelving Disaster of 2011... handpainted and built in a weekend
also from 2011, my next 1/72 spitfire, a Mk. IX, was the old mold from Airfix. I gave it a basic cockpit and pilot, and marked it as an American spitfire. Handpainted with my usuall Testors enamels
Spitfire Mk. II, from Revell in 2011. This time in 1/48 scale and airbrushed with MM Acrylics
a couple years later, I added Airfix's fantastic new-mold Spitfire Mk.XIV, in 1/48 scale. Way better than the previous airfix spitfire, also much better than the Revell offering. Enamel rattle-cans, built in 2013...
its been a couple years...I might need to make another Spitfire!!

OWL's Spitfires
Every take-off has a landing...some are just better than others
Re: OWL's Spitfires
That's bunch of totally different Spits
Cool that Frog set with the V-1 and the stand! Never seen that before!
Nice weathering in your Mk. II and really good looking XIV !
Perhaps your next Spitfire would be Eduards version ?

Re: OWL's Spitfires
You can never have too many Spitfires! And those are all awesome.
I currently have...um... 6 built and two more planned next year for a GB.

Re: OWL's Spitfires
So, have you started one yet? Huh? Have you? Come on!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..
