Tamiya's Spitfire Mk Vb - some questions

That should work now.

You need to copy the link from imageshack again and then paste it into the post so that it doesn’t replace the middle bit with dots.

Mike, that is some very nice work. What decal kit did you use? Where did you find the oxy / acetylene bottles and cart? I’m looking at a Revell figure set which I think contains the same cart (seems very similar to an ICM figure set), just wondering if it’s the same set. Was the aircraft kit Tamiya? Again, a nice looking aircraft.

Andrew -

Thabnks for the comments:

the decals were from Techmod,

and the acetylene cart came from an ICM figure set originally.

This Spitfire set contains the acetylene cart and figures.

or now as you noted that it’s available under Revell’s label for the equipment and figures only

As for the carts, that was from an old Monogram/Revell set for ground equipment (US, British and german) that hasn’t been re-released to my knowledge. there is at least one on eBay

A few photos of what I think I’ll call the finished product, and thank you everybody for the help.
