Khemedi Spitfire
Interior test fit and cockpit trimmed for new canopy
Test fit of new canopy. The vac form canopy needed to be split either side of the winshield as the Spitfire is wider there than the Hurricane
Interior completed and fuselage stuck together
New Canopy in place and lots of filler on the wing tips
Lots of filler at the back of the wing joint
Top side paint and main decals
Underside painted and decalled

Not a huge fan of whifs, however this one looks nice, bit like a piece of alternate Azerbaijani history😉

Thanks Lukasz - it's actually from a Tintin comic book, from a fictional middle-eastern country

Yes, it is - took a bit of work to get it to fit, but that's the way it was drawn in the book!😁
