  During last 10 months, I'd been so involved in a very interesting modeling project, the beer-carrying Spitfire of Johnnie Johnson. There are several kits and after-market options for this famous plane, and recently, Eduard also included it in their luxury royal edition box. But I’d like to build it in a big scale, so I decided to take a Tamiya Mk.IXc kit with additional items for Beer-fire.

  I used a LL sprue of Tamiya Mk.XIVe kit for e-wing conversion and took beer kegs from Profimodeller composed of separated resin plates and etched hoops. All markings for this plane including code letters, serial numbers, and roundels were painted with custom masking sheets from a Korean Manufacturer, GravityWings. And I used some resin parts from BarracudaCasts for cockpit detailing and replaced plastic landing flaps to etched ones from Eduard.

  It took a long time to finish this modeling project because of engine and cockpit detail-up, but the finished model is worth the effort, I think. And having a cool beer was just the thing for me on the last day. :-)

  Hope you can enjoy photos and happy modeling.

  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.
