Calling these two finished. Both are the Airfix 1/72 Spitfire Mk.IXc, and are both out of the box.

Very nice, especially the desert camo one. However, I hope this is just a phase. There are still more F-16s to build ;-)

That's a very nice pair of builds; and who doesn't like a Spitfire? :-D

Nice pair
When I come to do my spit, I'll flatten the upper wing 'bubbles' inboard of the cannon blisters.

Both these models look terrific!
We all need to build some Spitfires from time to time!
