Very special, and a real pleasure to see the build. 

[Stormer 144]

No more excuses! Get on with the B-24...

[Iain (32SIG) 9,683]

Don't nag Stormer!

 

I have a screen full of aerofoil sections just now - and they're not Spitfire ones... 

 

Thank you one and all for kind words on the Spitfire - really appreciated.

Absolutely wonderful Iian, those canopies look so good and your work has really paid off.

Very nice job Iain and I really like the clean look.  Your cowlings fit better than most builds of this kit (including mine), so you must have done something extra good up front.

 

Cheers,

Chuck

[Iain (32SIG) 9,683]

Hiya Chuck,

 

I cheated a little on the cowlings...

 

The lower cowl section is bonded in place - so has provided a solid 'keel' that I could adjust whilst drying to ensure the other cowling panels fitted properly.

 

Seems to have worked!

Outstanding model and build technique.

I just went through the 27 pages of your WIP and I thank you for that.

I learned a few things along your WIP which will be put to good use as I am currently working on a restored MKXVI in 1/32.

 

[MustangManiac 583]

Awesome build Iain!  Now I need to try and build one myself. This and the PR versions are my favorite versions of the Spitfire. 

 

Cheers,

Brady

[Palm-tree 193]

Lovely job , just beautiful to look at.

 

Judging by the number of views and the number of two-seaters now regularly seen in the south of England-, Biggin, Boultbee, etc, there must be a case for some sort of kit of this version now?

 

 

[dodgem37 6,907]

You are some kind of good, Iain.  Great show.

 

Sincerely,

Mark

[Gazzas 5,760]

Wonderful Job, Iain!  Certainly a stand-out in any crowd.
