Looking very nice Jamme! You know how I feel about heavy (pre)shading, though...

Other than that, magnificent build! Awkward airfield planking, I must say... Must've been hell on the undercarriages! Oh, wait.....

 

I had to add: I positively LOVE the airbrushed roundels & markings!

Thank you for the nice comments, 104!

  Jamme,

Beautiful Spitfire my friend. She carries a very impressive weathered camouflage. Well Done. I've seen several Hobby Boss kits at the LHS but have shied away from them not knowing much about their quality. What's your opinion of this kit,how does it compare to Tamiya's or Hasegawa's Spitfire?

Highest Regards,

Gregory Jouette

Hi Gregory.

Thank you for the nice comment.

What should I say over the HB Spit......?

It's not Tamiya, but surely better then Hasegawa, at least the engraving panels, riveting and easy of build.

The HB kit is much under looked, because it has certain flaws.

Nothing difficult to fix.

For the price there is no pictures for the choice!

Cheers,

Jamme

HI Benjamin.

Thank you for the nice comments.

I will have it completed at 100% this W.E.

Needs the IFF cables and a few touch up.

Cheers,
