Fantastic finish on the Spit Jamie, from sprayed markings to the fuel staining and weathering it really looks great.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate, it was a lot of fun

Nice update Jamie, the model looks great on the base, less is best sometimes , the MIG looks interesting, looking forward to that one 👍

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate

[@DarrellThompson47]

Really great looking Spitfire's. Looking forward to see how you get on with the Atom paints. I'll be interesting to see what their metallics are like.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Darrell

[@SEMJW]

Remarkable. A perfect application of paint and weathering that mimics the effects on full size aircraft.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate

Jamie your weathering looks fantastic,and it doesn't look like a plaid shirt with overdone panel lines. Very natural looking like a real plane should look like.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks mate

[@archer159]

Spits both look fab. The dio really sets the Malta one off; I have a job on these days because I just have to do dio's for most AC kits -slows the line-up terribly! Looking forward to the MiG Jamie. Might have to get one as I appear to be deficient in the 17 for some barmy reason.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

They're both Malta schemes mate!

[@ljscalemodels526]

Brilliant work on the Spitfires Jamie.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Thanks Liam

[@tompotter9064]

Jamie, just a really nit-picking point, which you may well be aware of - if so, forgive me. The navigation lights of Spitfires were hooded on the inboard side of the light, so only the outboard side of it would be coloured. I've been trying to find flexible oxygen hose for ages - please tell me where you're getting yours from.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Geek! Thanks for the gouge mate. The hose os from AIMS, Hannants stock them.

[@tompotter9064]

Guilty as charged. ​@@thescalemodellingcafe

Workbench Hobbies has done an interesting review of the Atom paints.

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Cool

[@billroberts7889]

Awesome job, you're baiting me to get a Spit Mk.V🤣🤣🤣

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

Awesome!

[@TheLaughingBrexiteer]

[@thescalemodellingcafe]

I work in the Middle East mate
