I picked up this kit yesterday at the LHS. It was part of a collection that had been purchased by the LHS and she was a pretty good price.
I brought her home and opened the box to find all the bits on two main sprues moulded in light grey and one of clear for the canopies.
The decal sheet as included was quite nice with an option of three different aircraft but not being able to tell how old things were I decided to purchase some aftermarket decals. I began shopping around and there is certainly no shortage of choices to be had. I eventually decided on these decals and I also grabbed a complete stencil decal sheet.
I am leaning towards the bottom of the three aircraft to do but nothing has been decided for sure just yet. I will wait until the decals get here and I will have a look at them and then make a decision.
This is my first Spitty model since I was a kid and something is telling me it should be done in European C/S but I do like that middle eastern C/S as well.
I have started her, beginning with the cockpit and photos will be forthcoming as required to keep you fellas up to date on the progress of this build.
Cheers,
Jeff
