Spitfire prototype build

[K5054NZ]

G'day all
Modeling Madness today has as its feature article my build report of Airfix's 1/72 Spitfire as the Prototype K5054.
Spitfire prototype conversion
This is my first conversion with aftermarket bits, so I'd love to hear your opinions

[Ollie]

Yes, great job on the build and the write-up buddy!

Beautiful!  Simple and uncluttered.

Great job

That was a top notch build and review article Zac! It was nice to see something a little different. I'm a big fan of the Spit prototype and I think you really did it justice with your work! I'd love to see one in that 1937 camo pattern mentioned.

Well Brian, thanks for your kind words...I have a soft spot for K5054 (as my username and avatar will tell you B) ) and next time I am in the same room as the Airfix kit and the Aeroclub conversion we'll make beautiful camo together! I really enjoyed this and you're right, it'd be good to see "K" shed her civvies in favour of a more militant outfit! (Plus I wouldn't have to deal with those white metal exhausts!)

Everyone - it means a lot to have such experienced modelers talk so highly of my work. Thankyou all very much.
