Airfix Supermarine Spitfire Mk.Vc | 1/72 | full build

[@Ensign_Cthulhu]

When I was a kid, 1:72 "cockpits" were a couple of bars across the interior on which the pilot figure was balanced. He was lucky if he had a seat. Much has changed!

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

I was quite surprised how detailed this cockpit was to be honest for 1/72 👍

[@jaws848]

Camo patern looks fantasticc...excelllent overall result...well done,Sir.👍👍👍​@@MrWhiteScaleModels

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

​@jaws848 thank you 👍 I appreciate it 🙂

[@rc-fannl7364]

Lol, yeah. Either bars or zigzag shape as "seat" at best.

[@ScreamingLordStokes]

Nice work. Looks like one of Airfix's better new tool models. Not many people seem to have reviewed this latest version of the Airfix VC so thanks for sharing this, I particularly like this 129 squadron scheme and the box art escorting the B17s.

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍 I was always building tanks so this was the first Spitfire I'd done at the time. All parts were great, colour scheme I agree nice with the light blue etc and I'm definitely a fan of Airfix box art too 👍 quite a cheap kit considering how good it is.

the Masking is what drives me Nuts(among other things). Very nice work👍

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Yeah I've never been a fan of masking. That's the part I'm up to now with the next build 🙄 Thank you 👍

[@TheNoviceModeller]

Gorgeous looking model, thanks for sharing.

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thanks very much 👍

[@dylanmurray1462]

Great video mate. Looking forward to seeing more of this. Cheers

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍 next one is bigger but I'm around half way through.

[@russellmarriott9396]

Looks great, very envious of your skills!

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍 I appreciate it

One of my hobbies is watching model builds and searching for any cock ups made. I'm sorry to say you disappointed me with your perfect airbrushing, your dancing brush technique and not over the top weathering. This looks a great kit. Seems a lot of decals for a 72 scale kit, nice details. Airfix have really come a long way since I was a kid. Well done.

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 🙂 yes quite a few decals, some I found stuck to my hand after searching for ages. Nice little kit I'd recommend it to anyone and for 11 quid bargain.

[@sarahbonny1]

This is the best 1 uv done

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Cheers 🙂

[@dawson967]

The grey looks nice👍

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍

[@raymondmoumou]

C' est bien fait, mais quand appliquez-vous le vernis mat ?

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍 I applied the matt varnish at the end of the build

[@susanwhite1641]

Great video, really enjoyed this

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 🙂

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

When I say quick build at the start of the video, I'm referring to myself having limited time and not the Spitfire being a quick build kit.

[@rc-fannl7364]

Turned out nicely. Just wondering if the toe out on the landing gear is accurate

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 👍 After recording and uploading the video, I noticed I had knocked the landing gear out of place a bit probably through handling the model. The landing gear should be slightly more inwards.

[@hannahdriver560]

This is fantastic

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thank you 😊

[@johnnoble01]

Enjoyed the vid but i think you have the undercarriage legs in the wrong way round. Probably because of the square holes?

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Cheers 👍 After I finished recording I noticed the far part of each leg had been knocked out of place probably when I've been handling the model. Will admit laziness on my part using cement on painted parts rather than looking for my superglue 🙄 Appreciate the comment, thanks 👍

[@alanelesstravelled8218]

The decals for walkway demarcation lines on the upper surfaces of the wings should be applied first, they don't go over the roundels.

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Yes 👍 got a bit carried away and applied the roundels first

[@BrettLloyd-z5x]

I like ww2 plane models

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Some nice kits out there 👍

[@badman5509]

Nice result. Only the chassis looks a little strange. As if the wheels are coming adrift.

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Cheers 👍 Yes after filming I noticed I'd knocked the 2 far ends of the legs out the holes, I think through handling the model. I corrected them afterwards but a little too late 🙄

[@blacknass1943]

grait model the onley thing :you need a new airbrush pistol ^^ yours splashing quit a bit. : D or new nosel and nadle

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Thanks 👍 Yeah while painting this model my airbrush was definitely struggling a bit, I'm due a new one before the next build ✈️

[@robertgalletto8186]

Missed painting the main canopy

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Yeah there's a few things I wish I hadn't of rushed through 👍

[@Daniel-yq8pu]

La cinétique du train d'atterrissage n'est pas bonne !

[@MrWhiteScaleModels]

Yes, through handling I must of knocked the landing gear out of the hole. I realised this after uploading the video, I need to be more careful in future
