Thanks for posting the thread. I’m still in. Will ID kit tomorrow.

3

Thanks for checking in. Work has been hectic, and Im on 3rd next week so expect slow replies from me for a week. Im still deciding which kit im doing. I have a Tamiya Vb and an Italeri IX both 1:48.

Hi guys

I have a 1/72 Airfix Mk IX in ‘Johnnie’ Johnson’s colours (the “Aircraft of the Aces” special edition) in the stash so I’ll lump in with that if I could please.

Greatest aircraft ever. Have seen some nice Ventura decals for the Mk VIII so will have to keep my eyes open for a kit. I’ve chatted a few times over email with New Zealand ace Alan Peart so seeing his aircraft in that decal set will do nicely!

Don’t hold your breath though. LOL. I’m very slow with building at the moment but, man it’s fun!

Cheers

Andy

Yeah you just had to do it didn’t you…Another GB i can’t resist[:S]Depending on the finish date i’ll jump in with a Hasegawa 1/48 Mk VIII in RAAF markings…

6

I’ll put you down for it and if you build it you do, if not then you dont. Im guessing it will run over a year, with my work schedual, some weeks I dont even work on anything for a week.

7

Not sure what kit I’ll be doing. I think I have 10 or so. It definitely will be in 31st FG markings though.

8

I would like to join this group build. I will be building Revell’s Spitfire MK II.

9

I’m currently building a Tamiya 1:48 Spitfire Mk Vb with decals from PYN-UP for another GB..

I’ll use the decals for YO*A.

Thank you.

10

Does that mean you’re in?

11

I’ll be a definate finisher with a year long build, besides you can’t have a Spit Gb without a "grey nurse" from 80th RAAF…[Y]

12

im in iv got a part built 1/32 scale mk1

13

From who?

14

cant remember lol i think its an old revell kit

15

My entry will be the PM Models Spitvire VB Seaplane kit in 1/72. Wow talk about a simple kit! Makes an Airfix look detailed!

16

Could I throw my hat in the ring with Tamiya’s Spitfire MK I in 1/48?

Scott

17

I’ve just been on the phone with creativemodels.com , One Aires full detail set is on it’s way so i’ll be opening up the engine and gunbays of this spit8[:P]

18

Sure can! Welcome aboard, start building when you’d like!

19

Hello from the midwest! I’d like to join in. I have a Airfix 1/48 MK XII, and am kit bashing a Spitfire MK 21 in 1/48, either using an Academy MK XIV and Airfixe MK 22/24 or by using an Aeroclub conversion if I get hold of it.

Anyone know of where to get a Black Magic comoflage mask set??
