And the latest issue of Finescale Magazine arrived today, with a great big hole torn out of the front!

Built 2 of the Mk.IIs, one kinda sorta converted to a Mk.III, squared of wing tips, bulges over the exhausts but still need to add the tail wheel gear covers. One of the complaints is the lack of the gull wing effect where the rear wing meets the fuselage
Robert Porter

Had not noticed that, but when you look from rear it is obviously not quite right. But should still be fun to build. Just have to pick a subject.

Ordered the brand new Revell 1/32nd scale Spitfire Mk.IX yesterday - should arrive by mid-week, when I'll post a full 'in box' review.

Yep, I built 2 so that shows how much I care. Does the Corsair have a wing fold option

That one is a challenge Robert but shakes out pretty nice if you are patient. I've yet to build mine.

If you like the Eduard kit, maybe consider looking at their Overtrees as well...
Bare bones: no decals and no instructions and better than 1/2 price in most cases. I rarely use kit decals and you can download the instructions from the Eduard site. Minimum order is 20$ but who wouldn't throw in a PE set. Shipping is between 9-15$

I have not tried those yet, but I was tempted, after your info I think I will go ahead and try some. I can easily get aftermarket decals and a PE set if needed. Thanks!

Probably be awhile before I get to it, but it was on sale so I snagged it!

More sneaky jumping kits !
Strange how they always seem to jump off the shelf when you're least expecting it !!!
At the check-out "Bacon, eggs, bread, milk, model kit, rice, tomatoes, model kit ... "
