Spitfire Mk IX [Revell 1/32]

Recommended Posts

Hello,

Here is the revell version of the Spit Mk IX. A very nice kit much much  cheaper than the Tamyia one.

Of course we can find differences. The Tam fit is near perfect, the engine is a kit in itself, the lines scribbing is really nice and no aftermakrt is needed.

But the revell, even with some aftermarket remains a better bargain.

I replaced the wheels and exhaust pipe by Eduard resin. The revelle original pieces are quite bad. I also used eduard metalic landing gear.

Some of the decals are from the Renaissance sheet dedicated to the Free French in the RAF.

Thanks Dennis.

 

It is quite a straight forward built.

I forgot to mention that I replaced the orginal guns by the one from masters (originaly for Tamyia so I had to enlarge the hole to fit them.
