Thanks so much!! I’ll shop around for some of those paints and see how I go :)

Thanks! It was a toss up between this and the eduard kit for me. How did you find it? Top of the craft is revell enamel paint so I didn’t have too much issues. However I foolishly used tamiya paint on the bottom which I discovered is more for air brushing. I managed to get some paint retarder but it still didn’t look quite right :(

 

Just finished this tamiya 1:48 spitfire! It’s such a lovely kit with brilliant fit. I can’t use an airbrush so had some issues with paint texture but I’m happy with the outcome and had fun building it :) View of the spitfire seat and seatbelts

I think this kit came out fairly nicely. I mucked up my varnish though :( The kit itself was pretty poor quality. There was some really bad fit and massive gaps in the kit. The wings needed some serious sanding before being able to fit into the fuselage
