Stunning looking cockpit Jamie! Without being over the top, and with really beautiful painting, it's a wonderful looking model. 👌 Spot on mate, looking forward to the next episode. Take care mate. Bobby
Exquisite work ! - Didn't realise they were Silver & Cockpit Green - I have just done the Tamiya 1/48 Spitfire and used AK 3rd Gen Cockpit green - very pleased with that until I saw yours 🤯. I have the Kotare Va coming so I get to do it properly next time - looking forward to the next instalment!
I’m enjoying this as I have one of these beauties in the stash. Its place in the build queue is rising every time I see one of these built. I really appreciate your descriptions of techniques and your reasoning - thank you. ps. May I pass on a tip? I clean (de-burr) drill holes with a sharp drill bit considerably larger than the hole I’m cleaning. As long as you use light pressure it works well.
It's a smashin' cockpit OOB isn't it. For the Supermarine apple green I used Mr Color RLM82. Seems like heresy using an RLM in a Spitfire but I'm useless at mixing paint colours and it seemed to be the closest match after i disappeared down the rabbit hole to find a match😊
