That looks suitably worn Rick - not too much but certainly in the thick of it!

Two super builds Rick: the weathering is just right IMO.

Thanks Guys, I do appreciate the comments! I have another Spitfire WIP. Tamiya 1/72nd scale Mk.1. I am building this one to represent the final bird flown by John Dundas. November 28th 1940. To Me this date ends the BOB. Dundas shoots down Wick, and is downed moments later by Wicks wingman.

Everything about those planes was beautiful, and you've done a magnificent job capturing the look & feel of them, Rick. Conga-rats, as Diego used to say!
