Pacific Coast Models + RB Productions 1/32
Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIVe

by Tony Prince

Trumpeter's 1/32 scale F4U-4 Corsair is available online from Squadron

Here is my recent build of the Pacific Coast Models 1/32 scale Spitfire presented as a Mk.XIVe, using RB Productions resin aftermarket resin set.

This was a comparatively straightforward conversion that I enjoyed very much.

My modifications included a scratchbuilt set of main undercarriage legs in brass & brass tube machine gun barrells & shrouds; the former to not only improve the appearance of the undercarriage, but also to provide a stronger pair of legs for the fairly hefty resin nose & spinner. Zotz decals were used, which went on beautifully.

The model portrays a 91 Squadron machine, DL-K, RB 188. flown by Flt Lt "Johnny" Johnson, from West Mallng in July 1944.

Hope you like it.
