Spitfirepalooza Continues!
Another model completed during the Great Hunkering Down, the Eduard 1/72 Spitfire Mk. VIII. This is my first 1/72 Eduard Spit and as has been said by many before, these kits are great! I will definitely do more.
-
- 1. Model primed with Tamiya flat black.
-
- 1. Underside in black.
-
- 1. Then I preshaded in thin layers of white, varying different sections.
-
- 1. Or was it actually prehighlighting?
-
- 1. Base medium sea gray on top
-
- 1. Base PRU blue underside.
-
- 1. Washes and oil filters added.
-
- 1. Final weathering and satin overcoat done.
That Looks great. I have one to do in 1:48 and hope it turns out half as well
Nice build.
Great model Scott! Nice painting sequence photos.
All the best!
Well done Scott, lots of nice detail for 1/72. I assume Azure Blue or PRU Blue on the bottom, what color did you use on top? Faded Blue or something totally different.
Thanks Tom! It’s Vallejo PRU blue on the bottom and Tamiya medium sea gray on top.
Super Spitfire!
Great work Scott! I like the rare variant. Good work on painting and weathering.
Love that scheme - was it one in the kit? I've not built an Eduard kit, but may have to pick up this kit! Great build.
Thanks, Greg! Yes, it did come as part of the marking choices. I’ve done several Eduard kits. The Spitfires are fantastic.
