Well here she is, Spitfire MkIX MA466 451 squadron RAAF, Corsica early 1944. Definitely not my best build but at least she looks like a Spitfire in a rather interesting colour scheme. Thanks for all the kind words along the way!

Not bad at all Andy, a different scheme to what we are normally used to.
