Airfix 1/48 Spitfire PR.XIX S31

Post by JonMW »

Got this done during the weekend, nothing really special just added a PE set for the cockpit, opened the camera doors and made a vacuum formed canopy. It's a really nice well fitting kit.

Great finish to a lovely little kit. Superb paint job sir.
Its been tried and tested, it works! So don't blame the system if you're no good. :doh:

Excellent build. What paint did you use for the PR Blue?

Thanks! Guess my English is a bit unclear, I finished it during last weekend, but I started it a few weeks ago.

Thanks, I used Vallejo Model Air PRU blue. Have no idea how accurate it is, but it's readily available here. And my thought was that after the weathering with oil dot filter and such the color is not the same shade that came out of the bottle.

I used it on my Spit XIX and was well pleased with the final colour. Go for it. :cheers2:
