1/48 Tamiya Spitfire Mk Vb

Gallery Article by Mooncake Liu on Feb 23 2010

 

This is my first model during the past two years. Because of my job and I am a little bit lazy, so I just built it directly out of the box. The Spitfire has always been my favorite fighter, its smooth fuselage makes people's hearts race. The Tamiya’s kit is great in construction, detail and panel lines. In the process of building this kit there is no problems at all.

I exchanged some techniques of building and weathering with some other modelers on Chinese forums, these are great help for me.  Although it has been a long time since I have built a kit out of box, and my weathering technique is not so smooth, but it is effective. Thanks goes out to the people who helped me before. 

Happy modelling.
