Last night i started my next two models, both are 1/72 and both are from WWII.
The Xtrakit Spitfire XII and another Revell Fw190 F8. As the Spitfire only flew with two squadrons (41/91), my options are a bit limited, but the Fw190 is open to a few choices at the moment. I had painted the interiors on the sprues a couple of days ago so again it it was time to cut them free, tidy them up and stick them together. Even though the Spitfire is a sort of limited run kit with no locating pins it has still gone together well, the only bit of filler i am going to need will be at the wing roots. The Revell kit on the other hand seems to have slipped together, the top cowling went into place so well that i forgot that i hadn't glued it after dry fitting.
Tamiya have recently started to sell their metallic colours again and i used them last night for the first time, i must say I'm impressed.
