O.k. here it is, and I would like to thank, (in no particular order), Bruce, Wotjek, Terry, Andy, Bill, Wayne, Glenn, and all of you that looked in, and learned, as I did from these fine and talented modelers! Woo Hoo!
Sorry to say, but the Spitfire has not been one of my "most built" over the years. I have always had problems figuring the different marks, the early ones are easy, but then...IX, XI, IXVETUQ,... You get the drift.
Now, American designations may be hard to follow, (F-4-U, F-4-D, F-U,...), but at least we were telling the world... well, F-4-U, F-4-D, F-U...
Enough of that, on to the Spitfire!

Very nice work :) She turned out great :)
 
Very well done indeed Paul.
I agree with Evan's question though - a coat of clear matt would turn a very good model into an excellent model - but it's still good as it is, and you could always say it was wet from Italian rain ...!
