Gents you're welcome 🙂
@Tim - to fit the Pilot to the cockpit you have to remove the pedals - the legs are to long 🙂

you also have to modify the pilot a Little bit - you can't fit him into the cockpit when it's glued to the hull

great work and nice pilot - the goggles are not yet convincing me, maybe some clear gloss would improve it?

that pilot does look good, you've achieved a very natural finish to him 🙂

Thank you mates that you like the pilot🙂
@ Thomas - I will put some clear glass coat on top before I finish the bird
@ Choppa - the flesh tone is always a thing that drives me crazy - I mix up to four colours to come to an convinincing result

Thank you Arne,
In the next step I will glue the wings to the fuselage - the dry fit looks ok

I agree with Mr Nutta, great job on the pilot, especially his face. Cockpit's lovely too 👍

Your pilot looks very realistic, he will add much to the aircraft. I used to love doing pilots, but once I got into the Photo-etch, I just stopped doing them.

Thank you gents - your comments are much appreciated 🙂
For me the pilot is the most hardest work to get him looking right
More pictures to come on the weekend

now the project is finished 🙂 later than expected
quite a good kit to build - I had no issues so far - exception some PE parts "escaped" and the main antenna got broken during a crash landing
hope you like it

...... really nicely done Stephan ! 🙂
Got any photos of the whole plane as all the photos are a bit of a close up,
good photos as they are but it is always nice to see the whole model within
the frame of the photo, I wanted to see which rudder option you went for etc.
Cheers 🙂

I have this kit in my stash hence my extra interest,
I'm saving it for when my skills and confidence improve etc. as it is a Master quality kit 🙂

So cool, the pilot is well done... And it really adds to the scale, such a cramped little cockpit on the spitfire...

that's more like it !! Awesome 🙂
always nice to see some photos entirely within the frame, it's nice to be able take in the whole model all in one go ! 🙂
A lovely build, super tidy and it will make a nice reference for me too😉
Cheers 👍

My last two Spitfires were a bit of a derelict mess, next one is going to be a cleaner attempt,
I've got loads of them waiting in the stash😉

don't have a Hurricane or a Mossy as yet, missed out on a bid for the Mossy, still got a bunch of other classics, Harriers, Me109's, FW190's, F4U etc. etc. etc. 🙂

I was used to have them - I calculated that I'm finished with my stash 2023😉😉
I use the models to calm down from work - and the musik to free the mind

I use both those for therapy haha 😄
that and alcohol and certain herbal "remedies"😉

![](/profiles/img/14838-610-s.jpg)
Haha Choppa 🙂 a good bottle of red wine could be a pleasure - therapy- what ever helps😉 sometimes a kit and PE parts and don't forgot about the extra thin stuff
