Revell 1/32 Spitfire. Finished at last!

[delmonteman]

Done finally. Has been by far the biggest challenge in my short modelling career but I'm quite happy with the result. It's still a bit bent and the guns aren't straight but sod it, I've finished!

Well done Gav,it's not an easy kit and you've got a great result. It's definitely a keeper and one to be proud of.

Cheers

From what we have seen of this kit recently on here this is a bit of a challenge so all credit to you for getting it together. It certainly looks good and a bit of weathering around the exhausts and guns sets it off nicely. I certainly think you should be feeling quite pleased with yourself.

Like Richard said, you've done a good job on a difficult kit! It'll be nice to see what you can do with better quality kits.

Cheers fella's. It's now sitting on the shelf and I must admit to it bringing a smile to my face when I walk past it. It was my first go with "exhaust marks" using Tamiya smoke acrylic and I'm quite impressed. EVERYTHING'S having them from now on!

Looking good Gav. As long as it makes you happy then it's a good build. Keep 'em coming

Hello gav,

I'm just catching up after a week in the sun and found another 'big spit' completed. Nice to see another die hard modeller triumph over the beast ! Still, it does look good when completed. Nice job, well done. Have you seen the Hase' 1:32 Spitfire at around £50.00 ??

Regards

Colin M........

 

[delmonteman]

No, I've not. Might have a look, it's my birthday soon..............

You mean this one Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire Mk.Vb

It might pay to wait to see what the Hobbyboss Vb is like; it has full engine and armament detail, and the list price is around £40.
