A bit of clour on he base, grass to be added later, main spitfire body tested in place - next job some wood bars and tarpaulins to be added at the back of the body.

Apparently the Turks ordered 15 Mk1a Spitfires, I think they got 3, only one flew.
Decals may not be the right size.

Static grass added to the base and support bars for the tarpaulins to give them shape and support.

Some undercoat and rust on the weights and corrugated  sheets to be used to hold the tarpaulins down. All fitted in place and "Spitfire Bills House" sign added to the tail plane.
