Thank you for the nice comments. This will be a open canopy build so I wanted to add details to the cockpit. The oil paint really add a lot to the build. I'm quite glad I started using them.

Weathering is almost done! Feels good to be back at the hobby. Our whole foamily got sick with the Rona around New Year eve. It was easy on the kids, but me & my wife got 3 hard day plus a week to get back at normal. Feels good to use a airbrush again!

Beautiful work, Guillaume. 👍
Looks like the Spitfire had even more wingshapes I did not know of.
I know at least two, clipped and not clipped. 😄

The clipped wings were to improve roll rate at low altitudes, the extended ,as in this build, were for high altitude performance.

By the way, a beautiful rendition of this marque 👍🏻

Thanks Rui, Michael, David & White Glint.
It complete my Spitfire Tech tree (I now have the 3 mains version or the spit). My Mk XIV have clipped wings, this mk VII has HF wings and my Mk I is have the original wings.

As for the color, I have used the AK real color for this build with a bit of oil paint for weathering. I'm quite happy with the result.

Thank you for explaining, David. 👍
The Spitfire is a real beauty, I really should start at least one of mine this year. 🙂

Thanks Guy!

Shite Glint, I can recommend the Eduard Kits (Weekend or Profipack). They have a lot of details. Although the ne Tamiya kit seem pretty nice too.

Thanks for the recommendation, Guillaume.
Coincidentally I have two Eduard and one Airfix Spit in my stash. 🙂

Don't forget about icm , which bang for buck are both accurate and very detailed. Probably up there with the eduard offerings, although more clean up. However does offer a merlin engine if you want to diorama it.

I have 2 in my stash along with several eduard kits
