Thank you. It sure felt like it when I was done. When Alex opened it, he said his dad would be speechless! That made me feel good.

Thanks Clifford. I have now built 3 of these, but in my mind, this one was the best result. The Eduard kit is sooooooooooo nice!

And the shiny finish is accurate. Anthony has sold the Spit to the Imperial War Museum recently but when he flew it, the aircraft was spotless and shiny. Looked like he waxed it frequently.

Album info

This model was commissioned by Alex Hodgson, whose father Anthony owns the real PT462 two seat Spitfire. I spent a lot of time on this one and had dozens of photos supplied by Alex. Hundreds of hours!
