1/48 Spitfire Mk Vb Trop
This is the Tamiya kit with a few PE and resin bits added. Rivets were added using Rosie The Riveter tools. All markings were painted on using Montex paint masks and the stencilling comes from Hobby Decal dry transfers, eliminating the [...]
Spitfire Mk1, RN-J, Flg Off Desmond Sheen, 72Sqn, July 1940
This was a recent commission build for a chap in Australia who contacted me via the online portfolio I set up this year. He wanted markings for Flg Off Desmond Sheen of 72 Sqn, Leconfield, July 1940-I just hope it gets there in one peice! [...]
RAAF Spitfire Mk. VIII
This is a 1/48 Otaki kit built in 2002. I followed the Aeromaster decals painting instructions which stated that the Ocean Gray portions of this plane were over-sprayed with "Mixed Green". They described this green as a lighter [...]
Rhodesian Spitfire F.22
My latest Spitfire. It's an Airfix 1/48 kit. Completed about a month ago using Humbrol enamels and an old Eaglestrike sheet for the Rhodesian markings. I never get tired of Spitfires!
SEAC Spitfire XIV

Tamiya Spitfire VIII
Victory Productions decals used to create Clive Caldwell's first Spitfire VIII.
1/32 Tamiya Spitfire IX
Without a doubt, the Tamiya Spitfires are "definitive." Personally, I prefer the "Hasegawa style" of model production, since 95% of modelers aren't really all that interested in opening up their models. If the kit [...]
1/32 Spitfire F.R.XVIII
Another Greymatter conversions (ex-Wolfpack) set. Start with a Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire V kit, hack off nose, upper rear fusealge, tail, modify the wings, add on Greymatter cowling, tail, wings, radiators, and spinner/prop. No decals per [...]
