hi guy's

hope this is in right place? if not could mods put in right place thanks.

FINALLY got my camera back of my shooting budy, so the pics of my Revell spitfire MK.22/24 and bristol beaufighter are now finally painted with the paints i bought i know there are the wrong paints but its all i had.

here is where the pics are

Flickr: ellis995's Photostream

thanks Keith

Both models look great Keith.I like them.What did you use for painting? I mean a brush or an airbrush. I like the way you applied the paints.
But the camo scheme for the Spit Mk22/24 seems to be incorrect I'm afraid.

 

[Airframes]

Hey mate, they don't look too bad for a first attempt! Good work.
Is there any chance you can upload future pics direct to the forum? The Flickr system doesn't show them as clearly or as big. If you re-size to no larger than 800 x 600, they should look cool.

Did they use the Dark Earth livery on Spitfires that late?

 

[Wurger]

I think there should have been Dark Green and Ocean Grey.

Looks great mate! Get in there, get some more built....

 

[Airframes]

Yep, should be Green/Grey, but our friend did admit he'd used incorrect colours.

The next model i HOPE will come with the right paints.

great models you can always repaint the spit if the transfers are not on it yet if it really bugs you, I think you can also do it in post war silver, but on the other hand in the scheme you have done it in if you come across some RAF Pacific theatre transfers then it makes for a neat "what if", I can't wait to see more of your work

 

[Gnomey]

Nice work!

 

[Wayne Little]

not a bad first effort mate, well done!

 

[ellis995]
