Model Forum / General / Models / February 2010New Tamiya Spitfire IX - ideas wanted
RE. the recent Tamiya Spitfire IX, could someone recommend a resource, (print, web or where ever), that would have some unusual colour profiles for that mark? As much as possible I'd like to build it straight OOB but would like to do something other than the standard camo paint scheme. Decals aren't a problem, I can make my own. Any leads would be appreciated.

But he may be slightly fixated on the new Airfix Spit kit... or possibly a Hurricane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HL9qH27WUvc WmB >This guy makes a compelling case for a nice desert camo, mid stone and dark >earth over azure blue.

I mentioned it once, but I think I got away with it... RobG (The Aussie One) What about post war ones? Quite a few European contries flew the Spitfir Mk IX post war, both camouflaged and in allover metal finish. BElgium, Norway, Netherlands Denmark just to name some - and also eastern Europe, Israel etc. Claus Gustafsen Denmark > RE. the recent Tamiya Spitfire IX, could someone recommend a > resource, (print, web or where ever), that would have some unusual [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > TIA > What about post war ones?

SignatureGod, guns and guts made America great. And Janet Napolitano nervous. Which should tell you all you need to know about Democrats. How can one restore America to greatness if greatness makes you uncomfortable? Go to Hannant's and search for 1/32 Spitfire decals; loads of ideas there.
