It's been a long time since I built an aircraft, but looking at this and your 1:24 hurricane build, they are outstanding, just wish sometimes I didn't have to many builds planned.
It's a pleasure to follow your builds Ian.

Fantastic work Ian , ive always fancied one of these but been put off by reports of a terrible fit , yours just goes to show that with a bit of care and a good dollop of modelling skills its no problem and an excellent result can be obtained . Off to ebay to look for a spitfire then :rolling::worried:

Brilliant - you've avoided the dreaded droopy wings. This model does have a bit of a bad reputation, but as you've proved, it's really not that bad.

I got them from the local B&M store. Not sure if you have them Ian.
