Just finished this one - well actually realised I need to add the IFF antennae, wing tip nav lights and do a few touch ups but effectively it's done.
This is the new tool Airfix 1/72 Spitfire Ia kit which I have converted to a IIa using the 3D-Kits conversion set. Markings are for the Battle of Britain veteran Athol Gordon MacIntyre from 485(NZ) Sqn in the summer of 1941. Decals are a combination of kit, Carpena, Xtradecals and 3D-Kits, paints are Humbrol enamels, weathering is chalk pastels and silver artists pencil.
Not perfect by any stretch of the imagination and there's a few little bits and bobs which I could have done better but overall I'm very pleased and of course it's always nice to finish a kit.
