Roman my man you are on a roll.

I too am sure you will whip this into shape, When your wife is finished whipping you into shape that is!!!

Ole, that Spitfire you mentioned, CR*S is a privatly owned Spit and the codes are the owners OWN so its not an airforce coded aircraft.

If you Google- TD248 spitfire - in pictures, you will get a mass of pictures of the Aircraft serial nr TD248 and all the schemes she has worn since restoration.

Engine is finished... only must fix little gaps what you will see on pictures like No 1 and 2...

Besides wash and drybrush all I have doned freehand with AB. I have used alclad colors... iron, burn iron, hotmetal red and blue, pale burnt iron and dark aluminium... black is revell mat enamel.

I have drilled holes in the exhaust, and all other is OOB... dont know What else I can put on engine?



What is proper color of cockpit interior? Of course revell instruction sheet gave mix of 3 color... Last spit I have painted in Revell: 32167 Greenish Gray?



Cheers

Cock pit grey green... Xtracylx do the best match

Humbrol mid green #101 might work but will need lightening.

Vallejo model color: Gunship green#895 is close but to green, might need a bit of grey likewise their Green day#886 is to yellow and will need a touch of Green.

I went the easy way and ordered the Xtracrylix from John.

White ensign have it in their colour coat range but is out of stock. Their stocks are a bit erratic in the winter as the mixing is done in a cold and drafty shed and the guy that matches the paints is both old and in ill health.....

Thx Ian

Then I suppose this one is to dark?

 

[Ian M]

Sorry its hard to say on a pc screen. It looks a bit dark but as I say hard to tell for sure. I know nothing about Revell's paints.

Here's the colour revealed by the removal of a data plate on an unrestored air frame.

I found at my paint stash this one... RAF INTERIOR GREEN Testors - 2062, I think this one will do the best
