Spitfire MK II - PIlot Officer Dunn (Eagle Squadron)
« on: October 27, 2013, 04:13:42 PM »
A new Build, once again a Spitfire: from the Airfix MK I I will build an MK II; the aircraft of Pilot Officer William Dunn (8,5 kills - survived the war).

Airfix kit is nice at first look. Engraving is a little bit stronger than needed but that don't bother me anyway...

Great new project!

Yes, that color plastic is very close to the old Hurricane I rebuilt last year.

I have forgotten to mask and paint the canopy... Correction made today.
Then yellow on the propeller; and rust on the exhausts.

Yes, going forward! I hope to close the fuselage very quickly... At least very quickly for me! ;)
