Hello again to everyone. Here's my 1/48 Tamiya
Spitfire Mk.V. of the Legendary RAF pilot Robert Stanford Tuck (RST).
For this model, I have used the photo-etch seatbelts from Eduards RAF
seatbelts set. Decals are from Cutting Edge's
"Eagles and Aces part1" set. Quality of these decals are
wonderful.

For the painting, I used Gunze Medium sea gray, Ocean
Gray (mixture from Tamiya acrylics) , and dark Green from Gunze. For
the camouflage, I prepared masks from paper according to the original
scheme, and applied these to the model with blue-tac for soft
edges. To give a nice effect, I have sprayed Buff, lightly between
the panel lines. I have applied some weathering with, burnt umber
oil paint, and various colors of pastels. Exhaust stains are
done with
sooth from Gunze's weathering set.
This is one of my favourite models,
Enjoy the pictures.
Happy modelling to everyone
Ceki
