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.
Tamiya 1/32 VIII Spitfire
These 1/32 Tamiya aircraft kits are simply amazing. I've also built the Corsair and the Mustang as well with he Zero in the stash - they are all close to flawless. To this Spitfire I added Barracuda Cast 5 slot main wheels and pilot's [...]
Spitfire HF VII by Italeri in 1/72
Found this kit in the giftshop of the RCAF museum in Trenton Ontario. Loved the paint scheme of PRU blue under with Medium Sea Grey over, the D-Day stripes, the "B" Roundels, the extended high altitude wings. Had to have [...]
Airfix 1/72 Spitfire IX and Bf-110 C dogfight scene
Hi everyone!
This is my tribute to Air Vice Marshal “Johnnie” Johnson. It is a simulated dogfight between his Spitfire IX JE J EN398 and a Bf-110 C.

Tamiya New-Tool 1/48 Spitfire Mk. I
My dalliance with the Spitfire continued... But I think that will be it for a while. A great kit- engineering and fit are as good as it gets, nice instruction booklet. That said the prototype "bonnet"/upper cowling is a single [...]
Airfix 1:48 Spitfire Mk.XIV
Here is my newly completed Airfix Mk.XIV Spitfire. With the new kit coming out, I decided to re-do the John Wilkinson Spitfire I built a few years back when John was still alive. This is the model I always wanted to build but the 1:72 [...]

THE KIT & BUILD NOTES:
I’ve always wanted to build a Spitfire in 1:48 and when Tamiya issue their last one I knew time has arrived.

Spitfire HF Mk.VIII (Eduard 1/48)
Yes, it's another one boring Spitfire, but I can't resist (by the way, it's my 10th Spit ever built). I've fell in love with this high-altitude fighter in a non-standard grey/PRU blue painting scheme on the box art, so the kit was bought [...]

The cockpit, which is fairly well detailed, does not include photoetching. [...]
