Tamiya 1:32 Spitfire Mk IXc

Great paint job there Colin - you really are doing justice to this great kit..... Won't be long before you finish - then what?


Once you get the bug for these Tammy 32s you just have to do more, just look at the stash in my signature!!...... what next, the Mustang, Zero, Corsiar or maybe the Mossie? They are all the dogs doo-dahs.

Some fine work you have done so far.


I also have one of these to do.

Well Barry, it will be another 1:32, but a real blast from the past.


So, shiny coat done and decals applied. There aren't too many for a kit of this size, I though I might be at it for days. I painted the sky band, as many do, but used kit decals, which as others have said are a bit thick and so you loose that lovely rivet detail under the decal. If you build one of these, consider either some alternative decals or mask and paint them on.

Coming along well.


Thanks for the info on the decals.
