Bit of progress, will post pics of both kits together in each Spitfire thread until I start painting.

Cockpit painted, joined and clamped and then the fuselage closed.

Have fought this kit all day, trying to somehow get the wings to fit the fuselage, the wings are so thick they look like Hurricane wings !

Looks like you managed it though, and I guess that' what happens when an old kit has new parts added to it. Coming along nicely Karl.

Yep it seems so, glad I didn't pay much for these kits, bloody awful compared to the COM 109 I am also building, very thick chunky plastic that doesn't go together very well
