This is ROG's newest release, the 1/32 Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc. Markings are for No.416 Squadron, RCAF, Tangmere, England, May 1944.
I built this for the RAF 100th Anniversary GB OOB except for the foil belts and an added detail to the rear view mirror that was punched out from chrome plastic foil. Double click on the images for closeups.
and glued on with Testors Clear Parts Cement. I has a very close look to an actual mirror.
Some fuel staining
Added a bit more chipping with a small piece of foam dipped in silver Floquil paint and blotted almost dry on a piece of paper towel to get tiny chips.
The belly got some light staining. Less is more.
The marbling add tonal value to the solid Med. Sea Grey
Pictures of the IP and pit.
This kit was very easy to build, enjoyable and well detailed in my book. Parts fit was exceptional except in a couple of places in the pit area but nothing to write home about.
