Lovely work Francis.  I have always enjoyed your finished kits so it's a treat to see how they get there.

Can anybody see a photo of a Bf 109F?

What is Biggles up too? Anyway  here's progress today. All flying surfaces fitted and faired in with a gentle sand and polish. Canopy masking done and the airframe ready for priming later this evening.

Anyway before I got highjacked by Biggles intrusion I was about to post todays up date on the Spitfire. Here it is just out of the spray shop painted in the delicious but elusive late 1940 'Sky Blue'. It'll disappear now for a couple of days for the paint to properly dry out.

Don't worry Francis Biggles tries to take over everything - now he can post photos just think what he will get up to ???!!!???
Other than him taking over the Spit is looking good.

Looking good. I'm just about to start reading Bruce Robertson's 'Spitfire - The Story of a Famous Fighter' covers everything from development through all the marks and has lots of photos as well serial numbers and profiles.

Here we go with the decaling. So far so good all have settled down without having to resort to the hair dryer.
