Found a little more time at the bench today! Top coat is RAF Medium Sea Grey and the bottom color is Azure Blue. Both colors are from Mr. Color (Gunze paint)...

And the bottom...

The marking are all painted on. Masks are from DN Models (https://dnmodels.com).

Well Dennis, get crackin on them PCM kits! They are actually a great platform for conversions!!

I so agree. It's nice how many of the Paragon conversion sets for the ole Hasagwa Mk V kit work so well with the PCM Spitfires. Very nice build. You will be done soon and have a beautiful model for your shelf.

Great to see the Spit back on the bench and air brush work is underway. As always - a master's touch with the air brush

Looking so good

Keep 'em comin

I really like this two tone high altitude color scheme!!

Now, I just need to do the stencils, clear coat, weathering and she's done!!

Cheers

Coming along very nicely, Alan.

 

I revitalised an old Otaki kit with the scheme using standard (authentic) wingtips back in the 90s, but never added

squadron codes as there were conflicting interpretations of their colour at the time (white/sky/other).

 

I also have a spare PCM obtained before the Tamiya releases, and from your work here it looks a good candidate to portray the hi-altitude version;.

Handy to know that the Hasegawa extended tips will fit too!
