Hi all


Here's a little something I knocked up for a group build on Sprues, basically a surplus post war Spitfire IXe adapted for cloud seeding with dry ice. It is based on an old KP kit.

Here's the pics...........





















And the usual scale shots............





Happy with this one, even though the decals put up a fight its come out well.

For those interested the Build thread is  Here


All comments and criticisms gratefully accepted,  as always.

the things you learn, give your mind the wings to fly, and the chains to hold yourself steady
take off and nuke the site form orbit, nope, time for the real thing, CAM and gridfire, call special circumstances.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Nice job on the smooth white finish. Looks great!

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

It has been years since I last listened or watched this:

I always thought it was a double of Donald Sutherland in that vid, but it turns out it really WAS him!  :o

Superb vid and music of course, and THAT voice.  :wub:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)
