Excellent, Robbo! That's a very sharp looking Spitfire.

Thanks everyone, looks like I've got an exhaust too so I'm really pleased.
Right been thinking about this one and I think I'd like to do a polished aluminium, what do you think?

I would but I'm get the exhaust on Friday at the club so I'll have to wait till that's on
I can still finish the rest like the wheel well covers and mask the canopy (don't start again)

Polished aluminium or High Speed Silver Robbo? A lot of RAF silver aircraft were actually painted in a hard wearing anti-corrosion paint, the boxart looks to be one of those. Either way, I'm along for the ride 😉

I don't know the difference Steve and I've got a bottle of polished aluminium I'll be using that

I spoke with club members and they said you would not see the difference in this scale between silver of polished aluminium so I'm good to go on the colour
I've got the replacement exhausts from a club member in resin, just make sure I look after these better this time

All done ready for primer.
I've got to mask the canopy and never done it in this scale so hope it goes alright

You'll be fine,Ian. Are you going to prime the canopy or just go with the paint?

Post by Robbo on May 6, 2024 21:22:52 GMT
No I'll be leaving the primer off the canopy from now on

Excellent! You'll be happy with the results.
