Eduard 1/72 Spitfire Mk IX
This is my first 1/72 Eduard kit which I built 2 years ago. The kit is amazing in its detail and number of parts in the box. The cockpit alone rivals some in larger scales. This kit came from Sprue Brothers in the US; they sell Eduard kits called Overtrees, which are kits in plain white boxes, and have no decals or instructions, but at a reduced price. This one was $10.
I used decals from my collection and used Tamiya paints for the camo. I photographed the kit on my tabletop on a simple base. The background is from my Aussie friend Tim Prosser.
Beautiful build, David @thevid. So is Overtrees an official importer?
Thank you Felix. Overtrees is Eduard's name for these basic kits. The prices vary depending on the scale. Here is a link:

Yes, lovely kit and lovely build. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent result, David @thevid
Especially considering this is just 1/72
This kit looks like it is in 1/48th scale. Nice job and it looks great!
Beautiful Spitfire, David!
Well done!
A nice-looking Spit - well done!
