Supermarine Spitfire

Seafire Mk III, Special Hobby, 1/48: last dogfight of the World War 2 'First and Last' Project.

This is my third build on the theme of 'First and Last'. This ‘First and Last’ build features the last day of the second world war, the 15 of August 1945, and the last recorded dogfight in the Pacific theatre. It is an oft told story, [...]

Supermarine Spitfire Mk. VIII "HAVA GO JO"

This is my last build for 2021. It was built for a club competition with a photo evidence deadline of 23:59 on 31 December and was completed with 5 hours 34 minutes to go. The reason for this deadline was the various Melbourne Covid-19 [...]

Spitfire MkVI

This is my newest model Aircraft. Spitfire Mark six was not the best or the most favourable variant but I want to make it because it is unique and it’s ways. This is one of my foot-long’s built from scratch. Built from Pine.

Shelf of Doom

Shelf of Doom: Eduard 1/48 Spitfire Mk IXc This kit has been on my “Shelf of Doom” for about three years. I completed it in response to Roy Sutherland’s “Shelf of Doom” group build challenge on the Barracuda Studios Ready Room [...]

Airfix 1/48 Spitfire XIX

After much searching for this kit finally found one and decided to go for a Swedish example. Hopefully will post more pics later thanks Riccardo

1/32 Tamiya Supermarine Spitfire Mk XVIe

This is the Tamiya Mk XVIe kit. A nice kit but I had a few troubles with the cannon inserts and making the cowlings fit. Otherwise an enjoyable build. Painted with Mr Color paints and added HGW belts and some wheels. Otherwise out of the [...]

1/72 Airfix new tool RAF Spitfire

After a decidedly unsatisfactory 1/72 Spitfire build three years ago I decided to try my hand again. Fortunately, Airfix has a new tool version of their classic kit, so I was able to compare the two. The kit is really good with the [...]

Matchbox 1/72 Spitfire Mk. VIII (conversion)

This is Matchbox's 1/72 Spitfire Mk. IX (Pk-2) first released in 1972. In 1973 I built my first Spitfire from Matchbox and loved it. The one displayed here was made in 1984 and I converted it into a Mk. VIII. There was a few things I [...]
