Psycho- I am off to a start- but I am making a Revell 1/48 Mk IXc, not the Mk II that I originally stated. I made the seat belts out of foil from a suture package- it is nice and thin and easy to cut. May not be accurate but I think it looks good. There is some damage on the bulkhead behind the seat- my 9 year old started this about a year ago and gave up after an hour or two-he damaged the part cutting it from the sprue. Luckily it is not really visible when the fuselage is together.

Nice! How is the kit?

Have started my MK XII.  Except for an after market seat, it will straight out of the box.  My Mk 21 is started as well.  Doing the kit bash one first in standard camoflage.  If I get the conversion set, I will make it into an all silver version.  Just need to find a contra prop, either from an Airfix Mk46/47 Seafire kit, or after market if it exist.

Hello from the midwest!  I'd like to join in.  I have a Airfix 1/48 MK XII, and am kit bashing a Spitfire MK 21 in 1/48, either using an Academy MK XIV and Airfixe MK 22/24 or by using an Aeroclub conversion if I get hold of it.

 

 

Anyone know of where to get a Black Magic comoflage mask set??

So are you building two then?

Roster updated, anyone start work on theirs?

mines an old revell kit

I'll be a definate finisher with a year long build, besides you can't have a Spit Gb without a "grey nurse" from 80th RAAF.....

I'm currently building a Tamiya 1:48 Spitfire Mk Vb with decals from PYN-UP for another GB..

I'll use the decals for YO*A.

Thank you.

Does that mean you're in?

Thank you.

I would like to join this group build.  I will be building Revell's Spitfire MK II.

Not sure what kit I'll be doing.  I think I have 10 or so.  It definitely will be in 31st FG markings though. 

I'll put you down for it and if you build it you do, if not then you dont. Im guessing it will run over a year, with my work schedual, some weeks I dont even work on anything for a week.

Yeah you just had to do it didn't you......Another GB i can't resistDepending on the finish date i'll jump in with a Hasegawa 1/48 Mk VIII in RAAF markings....

Hi guys

I have a 1/72 Airfix Mk IX in 'Johnnie' Johnson's colours (the "Aircraft of the Aces" special edition) in the stash so I'll lump in with that if I could please.

Greatest aircraft ever.  Have seen some nice Ventura decals for the Mk VIII so will have to keep my eyes open for a kit.  I've chatted a few times over email with New Zealand ace Alan Peart so seeing his aircraft in that decal set will do nicely!

Don't hold your breath though.  LOL.  I'm very slow with building at the moment but, man it's fun!

Cheers

Thanks for checking in. Work has been hectic, and Im on 3rd next week so expect slow replies from me for a week. Im still deciding which kit im doing. I have a Tamiya Vb and an Italeri IX both 1:48.

Thanks for posting the thread. I'm still in. Will ID kit tomorrow.
