Kotare Spitfire Mk.Va 1:32

[Shoggz]

Going to try and build this one alongside my other current project - the 1:24 Airfix Mosquito..

 

Just snipped a few parts from the sprue so far.... More progress soon, I hope!

Nice.

 

Looking forward to following along Richard

Live from Richard's kitchen: it smells good in here!!!  
And this Mosquito, let's talk about it, soon finished ?

[Shoggz]

I hope so Denis!

I am looking forward to following your build Richard.  I have the kit on pre-order from Modelbau-König here in Germany and will enjoy following your build to pick up some construction tips.

Fired up the new paint booth and did some interior greening tonight!

 

 

 

I treated myself to a set of the very nice Barracuda control columns - also with a first coat of MRP-111 splashed upon them.

 

 

(Yes, I know I only need one, but that's one less job to do on my next 'a' wing 1:32 Spitfire build!)

Neat job Richard.

I looked at those control columns at Telford.

Very crisp, well detailed items. 

Things are taking shape nicely.

Thanks Guy!

Very clean airbrushing Richard, and the Barracuda joysticks look superb.

Very fine work Richard!
And the 2 control columns are superbly precise and realistic.

1 €/£ question: are those the Mosquito engines I see in the background of the photo?...

Thanks Denis, and they are indeed Mossie Merlins you’ve spotted!
