Mates, I completely forgot to ask: What is it on the wings? I didn't find the answer in my drawings. Perhaps retractable...

HobbyBoss 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... 😄

Komoras, I can assume that they (HB) were guided by this: airliners.net/photo/..9-Spitfire/0843874/L

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) 🙂

Interesting, 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 😄

Łukasz, 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? 🙂

Looks 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.

Agree 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

Guys, 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. 🙂

Łukasz, it seems that only Chinese manufacturers have paid attention to this feature in early (Mk.V and older) Spitfires. 🙂

THE WORST. These tracks are the same absolutely awful tracks that come with the Meng Leopard 1 Series tanks. You are unlikely to be able to complete a full set of tacks even with the extra pieces provided. The pins portion of the track breaks due to a flaw in the injection process or the plastic used. Meng should recall and replace with tracks that are made with a much stronger or more flexible plastic. Or turn the heat up on the form work during injection so that the plastic doesn't form with flaws in the pieces. I bought this to complete a set of tracks for a Gepard model, still don't have a full set of tracks for the tank. SO DISAPPOINTING!!

Thomas, are you considering getting rid of the decal with my support perhaps? 😉

Łukasz, I am not going to use the provided decal sheet, so if you want it, just PM me with your address and I can post it.

(And for everybody else with knowledge about the different versions of the Yak-12, yes, I am aware of the differences between the A-version in the kit and the R-version used by the Hungarian People's Army. But since I am not able to scratch build the entire wing and empennage structure, let's just call it artistic license.)
