Slavo HazuchaTuning in for the show - cockpit already looks fab, incl. the mission-read elements! 👍🏻

Bill GilmanI've uploaded more photos that document the build progress, which has been very slow. Sorry about that, but life keeps getting in the way. I've had a variety of health issues and I'm heading to the oncologist next week to set up a time for a biopsy on some nodes in my neck. Hopefully it's just related to a sinus infection I've been fighting and not the lymphoma coming back. Keeping my fingers crossed. Cheers, Bill
10 February, 20:06
Robert PodkońskiI'll keep my fingers crossed for you too, Bill. Great job on the model btw. Keep it up!
10 February, 22:19
Zbynek HonzikI'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes well with your health, Bill. 🍀
10 February, 22:36
NicolasI also keep my fingers crossed that everything will be fine with your health.

Bill GilmanI used up a few bottles of semi-gloss white, but the Victor is now a "white whale." Thanks for the kind words on my health - I go in on Feb. 29 for a sinus surgery and tissue collection for biopsy. Fingers crossed. I tried to cross my toes but was unsuccessful... Cheers, Bill
26 February, 14:47
gorbyHope the biopsy doesn't find anything bad Bill.
The Victor looks excellent so far.
26 February, 15:54
Bill GilmanOh, by the way - after two weeks (!) of testing my oncologist decided the biopsies were negative. Dodged another bullet.
17 June, 14:07
Bill GilmanThanks mates. I've added a couple more photos that show the painting of the landing gear and air brake internals. I've also painted the wheels, gear doors and air brake petals (photos soon). Up next is to paint the dielectric panels on the underside as well as the H2S radome. Cheers, Bill
19 June, 13:34
Bill GilmanTwo more photos added showing some detail painting. I'm off to Rehoboth Beach, Delaware tomorrow for a week of spending what's left of my retirement portfolio. Unfortunately there are no hobby shops anywhere near where we'll be. But the Air Mobility Command museum at Dover AFB should make up for that.

Bill GilmanNearing the finish line on this one. The stickers are all on, and I really like how they performed. Hardly any film outside the design, and they snuggled down nicely with the usual solvents. I didn't see any silvering. Next up will be a few coats of a semi-gloss clear, and then I can attach the remaining bits. It's been a long build, but it was interrupted several times. Next project will be smaller! Cheers, Bill
14 July, 20:13
Thomas KolbThat is an exceptionally clean build and paintjob, I am super impressed with the decals too.
1 August, 14:03
Bill GilmanThanks everyone. It took me more than a year to build it, but I think it was worth it. Now, where to put it? Cheers, Bill
1 August, 18:35
Palo MI also wonder about the same question (where to put it), that's why mine is still in the box 🙂 . Beautifully done, Bill, congrats on such a great result. Please do share once you have an idea for how to show it off permanently 🙂
1 August, 20:02
Bill Gilman@Palo M - I have a display case large enough to hold it, but it's currently full! I've decided to get a smaller enclosed bookcase (like an IKEA Billy with glass doors) and move all my smaller models over to that. That will free up more than enough room. For now though, the Victor is in a large cardboard box awaiting its permanent home. Cheers, Bill
2 August, 12:18
Palo MThanks Bill! May I ask what kind of case it is? I'm familiar with Billy - I instead use an IKEA MILSBO glass vitríne for all of my models. I just can't find a decently priced one for larger models like this Victor, 1:48 F-111 or larger 1:32 planes. If you know the name of the display case, would appreciate the info.

komorasHobbyBoss painting schemes are suggestive at best, so to say...
Having them suggesting RLM66 on Luftwaffe camouflage, where the RLM75 should go...it's enough for me to look elsewhere.
Go with the other sources on the internet, I would suggest looking up more multiple sources.
And as far my RAF knowledge goes, after the Battle of Britain this camo combo was not used anymore, but I might be wrong.
PS. "Oark earth" shoudl say enoguh... 😄
22 July, 16:51
Duster_dKomoras, I can assume that they (HB) were guided by this: airliners.net/photo/..9-Spitfire/0843874/L
22 July, 17:16
komorassoyuyo.main.jp/spit5b/spit5be-1.html
I think this one sums it up best 🙂
Both is correct, depends only which one you want to represent - pre-august 1941 or post-august 1941.
(Thus concluding, my BoB related comment is wrong) 🙂
22 July, 17:33
Łukasz GlińskiInteresting, couldn't find any trace of DE/DG on Polish Mk Vs.
I know of Mk Is and IIs being repainted in Polish squadrons, but I'd assume this one has been repainted into DG/DG before being delivered to the 317th.
Still, there's no proof.
Very cool to see you added the undercarriage covers, what a silly mistake by HB 😄
29 July, 20:25
Duster_dŁukasz, I was guided by these photos. If the guys from Duxford had painted a real Spitfire like that, then why can't I paint a model in such a scheme? 🙂

Hans-Jürgen HaagLooks good so far! The boxes under the Wings could be the cameraports for the later PR variants with no big gunns.
I would cut it.
31 July, 07:15
Łukasz GlińskiAgree w/Hans-Jürgen - checked my 3 completed Spitfires (Mk I & V by Airfix and old KP Mk IX) and none of them sports such a feature
31 July, 08:36
Duster_dGuys, it looks like these are retractable landing lights after all. They were installed until 1942.
I have no idea why HB made them in the lower position. 🙂

31 July, 13:27
Duster_dŁukasz, it seems that only Chinese manufacturers have paid attention to this feature in early (Mk.V and older) Spitfires. 🙂
31 July, 14:44
Mr DIt's a nice tidy job and correct, there were many paint finishes on them.
HB are great little kits for the money, but have few shortcomings.
Always good to do bit of research before n around a build...it's interesting n helps with accuracy.
Top job 👍👍👍
1 August, 17:54
Duster_dMr D, yes, exactly. In the process of building, you constantly learn something new, and that's what attracts me to this hobby. What isn't always visible in drawings or 3D models can be discovered when assembling a kit. Each assembled kit teaches me something new about its real prototype, and it's so exciting!
1 August, 18:18
Duster_dThanks guys! Your feedback inspires me!
Łukasz, I have at least one more airplane with "little checkerboards" and RAF cockades in my plans.

Palo MStarting the album in the middle of the work - interior is already done, together with my son, now putting the exterior together. It's not a Bandai kit, rather a typical Revell - sanding and putty are needed, although not too much. Pieces didn't fit as well as they could. But overall looks solid and has nice touches, such as doors that can be opened.
18 November 2023, 19:02
Palo MIt wasn't amazing, but looks fine in the end and my son likes it. Mission accomplished 🙂
22 December 2023, 17:39
Palo MAdded more pictures. Was hoping the piece would turn out slightly better, but it is what it is 🙂 .
