  hi there. after recently taking an interest in the history of world war 2 i have purchased myself a 1/48 scale model of a spitfire mk. IX C/XVI by revell. this is the first plastic model that i have try'd and i enjoyed it very much. i started by painting some of the pieces that where part of the internal cockpit. then followed the instructions cutting each part out and filling down any ruff area's. each part is numbered so it was easy to glue the whole plane together. some parts are pretty small so it took a steady hand and a pair of tweezers,( i'm a creative person so i have all sorts of useful tools laying about). after letting the glue set overnight it was time to paint it.

   i don't actually have an airbrush but like i said, this is my first model so i painted the plane by brush. again the instructions show you which colours where needed but i'm a big fan of the spitfire so i already know how it should look.the next step was to add the decals that came with the kit. a steady hand was again needed for this. i wanted to make my model my own so i chose to add a pin-up to the sides. i couldn't get a decal of this so i made my own (it wasn't that hard,i just printed out the image onto transfer paper). i then checked out some other finished models on the web and learnt that the final step should be weathering. this gives the plane that realistic used look. i try'd my own technics for this using oils and an old rag. maybe not the technics used by professionals but i think they worked.

  Just delete any of the boxes below you don't need.....it's not important to include them.....they are there to give you an idea of the finished article.  It is best to limit your article to no more than 60 or so photos, so the finished webpage won't take too long to open.
