Have finished the other Spitfire this afternoon. Noticed that the big roundels on the wings look a bit blotchy. Don’t know what caused it. It’s also visible on the the other build. So it must come from the decal, not from my Bodenglänzer. Had further to do some final paint repair at the entrance for the open door but I hope you don’t see it … But now I call this build also done and ready for take off …
Spitfire Mk. IIb, P8342, UZ-N of No. 306 (Polish) Sqn, RAF Northolt, August 1941
Pilot: Sgt. Marcin Machowiak
Kit: Eduard 1/48
The pilot crash landed this Spitfire at Biggin Hill on the 28. August 1941 in a forced landing.
For the camouflage I have used:
Vallejo 71016 US Dark Green
Vallejo 71273 Ocean Grey
Vallejo 71307 Medium Sea Grey
Revell Aqua 59 Sky
… and both Spits side by side …
After nearly 100 w.i.p. photos this dual build comes also to end. I want to thank everybody of you who followed me with encouraged comments and/or Likes. My next build is something completely different and maybe you like to have a look at my Bundeswehr Feldumschlaggerät thread at Armorama from time to time. Would be happy to see you also there.
Happy modelling!
