Wow! Awesome concept and nice execution - as always.

Any thoughts on the paint scheme?

Thank you BdaB and Simon! B)

Actually, I'm thinking of a scheme I saw on a F-15 that used a light gray and a light blue, but kinda of grimy looking. Also, here's what I put to gether from the boneyard the other day. It has a little potential down the road. :)

Believe it or not, she likes to do this stuff. Lately she's been cleaning up the workbench after I'm done, and I'm not going to complain. ;)  ^_^

Looking sweet, Eddie...floats would lend that beast something of a new dimension. Perhaps a MK 13 torp on the belly?

Dunno about the floats, puts it a bit out there, I'm loving the idea of that subtle double take people have to do "is it real?"




But then floats and a snazzy racing scheme?

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid

I was thinking it looked more along the lines of the outer engine booms looking like pontoons. Kinda like those big hydro racers, like Miss Budwiser. :)  This Spitfire will evolve into a landlubbing, taildragging, SuperSpit. :cheers:
