Italeri 1/72 MK VI Spitfire

[Martay]

Hi all, im gona post his build im doing at the moment as an introduction of sorts, its my first one with an airbrush, and having only returned to the hobby around a year or so ago, ive not got a lot of others done. this build and the masking have been great fun and am looking forward to many more.

I did a lot of detailing of the cockpit, made my own belts and brake lines.

well thats her so far ive been at it a while and one or two from the ISM forum's might reckognise it

Welcome. I wish my first try with an airbrushed camo scheme looked half as good as yours. Nicely done.

 

[Martay]

ill put up some pics of me other hand painted jobs later on, they are ok but the AB makes some difference to the finish, its just gettin the process right at the min, tried a car,,,,not so good lol ;D

[Martay]

Again guys thanks for the replys and views, ive been taking my time and am just getting the last few bodywork pieces done ;D
RE glorfindel, it sactualy been quite a long build to be honest, ive done some scratch to the interiors of my previous, but this build is being posed with the office door open, so i wanted to get at least some amount of true detail into it, took quite a while to build the sutton harness from masking tape :
here is a quick photo update of the latest bit done

thanks guys

 

[Chris S]

Chris.
