Hello iModelers, some time ago i won the random Award on iModeler with my Revell RF-4E in 1:72 scale. That brought me this very nice kit in my stash. So thanks to Martin and all other modellers out !

The build has started a while ago but it has become the "hottest" project on my bench on the last weekend, there is a cockpit set from Eduard and their masking set involved.

It builds up very nice so far and the pe parts are a good addition to the already busy cockpit. The only concern will probably be the construction of the wheel struts.

Hi David, thanks for the reply, if you look closer on the pictures you see that the instrument panel has seen a good deal of sanding. With some ( more ) careful trimming you can get a nearly 100% fit.
So far a good build, more soon !

Coming along nicely

The undercarriage looks very weak, Craig. Photos of this soon.

It is looking good Bernd, the camouflage work is well done.

Very nice. Looking forward to seeing it done.

Thanks for the comments, Gents !
Bernard, i have used the Model Master paint for the RAF Azure Blue, with some drops white in.
Over the day my Spitfire has received a good coat of Humbrols Gloss varnish, HU 35 !
For a while i have used floor wax but got back on "real" paint after having trouble with that stuff.

Hello Bernard, MTO based aircraft are indeed an interesting research project. From the few quite blurry pics i have seen from this one, it could be every color.
May interesting too, the Malta decal option in the kit calls Sky as the underside color.. .
