1/72 AIRFIX SPITFIRE

Airfix Spitfire MkIXc in markings of MH434 painted as a MkI from the 1969 Battle of Britain movie. Cannon bulges removed as per the real thing, model is finished with Fundekals sheet over Tamiya and Vallejo Model Air paint.

Skipper is from Airfix Defiant as this kit has an undersized chap in fast-jet clobber ….

I installed a tiny motor obtained on eBay, wired through a piece of aluminium tube into AAA battery box and switch hot glued inside coffee jar lid.

I’ve got a Special Hobby Buchón to do as a film Bf109 which will get same treatment.

Sorry the pics are dull, sun went in as soon as I went outside!

Hope you enjoy
