Re: Spitfire Mk IX
Hey Cuz,
The Spit looks great. Almost a shame to put any paint to that baby. Is the exhuast functional? Hey Peter H, I think you and Mike need to use flite metal on your A-10! Like Lee Steves Spit build has got me ALMOST wanting to live up to my RCC Handle! Hmmmm a nice Ziroli P-61 with twin DA 50Rs..... Hmmmm may have to see if I can get IMAC rules changed to allow twins!  Keep up the good work Steve.

Re: Spitfire Mk IX
Thanks guys,no the exhaust isn't functional at this time,maybe later on depending on how everything goes.I'm going with a post WW2 Italian scheme so very little paint,just some markings and a clear coat.I've already built the smaller rudder for that version.
ps.Jim I think you really should pick up that P-61,or any big warbird or scalebird for the increasingly popular scale events that are happening now and the new events that are coming soon!

Re: Spitfire Mk IX
Thanks Mark,I've got the tail covers completed.I used silver Solertex to do the job,nice stuff and its low temp,very easy to work with.Then I added the pinking tapes from Pink-It.com,again very easy to work with and is compatible with Solertex using the same temps to iron them on.I didn't add 100% of the tapes only 95%or so.Then I used carpenters glue for the stitching and painted the tapes with silver dope using an airbrush.On to the mid wing..

Re: Spitfire Mk IX
I've added the 20mm cannons to the wings.They are made from 1 1/8"dowels available from Canadian Tire, and brass tubing.Also made them removable using a 1/4-20 stud.Have about 3/4 of the mid wing finished at this time.

Re: Spitfire Mk IX
Steve,
Cannons look good. Did you make them removable so less likely to get damaged when transporting?
