humbrol matt varnish !

Wow, now this is a matt varnish.

Great job on building and painting. I would have preferred a more clean underside, but that is my personal taste and may be distorted by the dark pic.

 

[Alan 45]

Cheers francesco I appreciate that

I like to see a grubby spitfire as you say it's personal taste and they look good either way

it probably won't look as good as before but better than a streaky dusty faded disappointment

Decals are now on and have settled back enough to photo View attachment 97681

the only 1/72 decals I had spare were for a MkI Spitfire so now it's a made up spitfire, not what I wanted but will have to do
Tomorrow I will weather it again!

I hate it when something goes wrong just as you think you've finished. Good save though Alan.

Soon have another Spitfire on the shelf! How many is that now??

 

[Alan 45]

Cheers Jason , it is only my fourth spit , one I wanted to do two were bargains and my son bought me one :D
