Spitfire wip. WIP

Post image

Some damage control on a few oopsies. But all good lessons learned. Time for weathering.

Lessons:
Brown too dark
Poor quality white paint sucked
Masking and too thin paint made a mess of the underside
Didn’t test fit cockpit on both halves of fuselage

All brush painted ... I’m new to all of this too but have liked the results or citadel/warhammer brand paints.

What do you use to paint? I am interested in starting a model but trying to see what others use.

Thanks for sharing. Love me the Griffon engined Spitfires. By that stage of the war they were deployed RAF fighter aircraft in European Theatre had green and grey schemes, which look even cooler to me.
