Nice one! Can you still remember how the build from the Academy kit was?

Ekki Auteur
I think I remember that the fit was all right. There was a problem with the canopy as far as I recall but nothing unsurmountable.
The detailing is not that great either. It's a good kit for a beginner like me,

Soeren R.
So its also good for me 😛
I'm also a blood beginner... Building my first kit in the moment 😛

Ekki Auteur
Which one?

Soeren R.
The Spitfire Mk V. from Revell.

Ekki Auteur
Good kit after all I've heard. Once you've finished, put some pics up.

Soeren R.
Not really good. Its known for some gaps and the fit isnt also not the best. But I will do my best and we will see if its worth of posting here 😛

Ekki Auteur
Good luck!
And I look forward to seeing the result posted here.

Soeren R.
Thx 🙂
You will but if it will be the Spitfire, that is something that I decide after I did the painting 😛

Ekki Auteur
I can understand that but what I've seen so far, there won't be nothing to be ashamed about. 🙂

Soeren R.
Thanks 🙂 Thats nice to hear but I'm still at the beginning and we will see how my first airbrush work will look 🙂

Ekki Auteur
I don't have an airbrush. I don't have enough space to be able to employ it. So for me it's still the old fashioned brush for the time being. 🙂

These Sidewinders pilones are very cool !

Ekki Auteur
The F-104 is cool! Full stop! 🙂

somehow the canopy is ugly and much too big. seems that academy made a mistake ?

Ekki Auteur
Looks like it, doesn't it? These days I wouldn't touch it, but then I had just started with the hobby again after 20 years or so, and I didn't care that much. 😉

Well done, Ekki. Congrats!
