Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XVI TB886 – F/L Bill Harper – No. 421 Squ. RCAF – April/May 1945
Bonjour chers iModelers,
This is my rendition of the excellent Spitfire Mk.XVI by Eduard. The model comes from the dual combo kit "The Rise of the Bubbletops" in the Edu'Art series (The kit includes also a Fw 190 D-9 that I will [...]
Italy – The sun and … Rhubarb?
Rhubarb - It was the code name for attacking ground targets by fighter formations. In 1944, the Luftwaffe was in a decisive retreat and many divisions were trained to attack ground targets. This was also the case with the 601 squadron that [...]
Supermarine Spitfire Mk. VIII "Grey Nurse" Eduard 1/72
This is my latest completed model. Eduard's Spitfire range is great in 1/48, 1/72 even in 1/144, but my copy of this legendary fighter was full of surprises... The surface of the kit was greasy and cellulite looking. Sanding, sanding...The [...]

Otaki 1/48 Spitfire Mk. IX (converted from a Mk. VIII)
Another of my old builds from 1989. Made to represent an ace who once lived about 15 miles from where I live. Frank Hill became a flight commander [308FS] and in May-42 went to England where the 31st Fighter Group was flying Spitfires. [...]
A bit of exoticism, i.e. oval wings over the Solomon Islands.
I remember quite well when I bought the first Spitfire from the matchbox kit in elementary school. It was a great joy! The model seemed difficult to me then, requiring working with a modeling knife. Of course, everything was painted with [...]
