PT's Down under dogs bag. - MkVIII **FINISHED**

Honoring Edgar Brooks, a Spitfire researcher and contributor to many modelling forums, we have the Every Mark of Spitfire GB -- in which at least one of each will be built, not in a free-for-all, but to a "plan".
The GB runs from 27 Feb 2016 to 10 April and your host are Martin R and Sir T.

New glamour shot with ailerons in correct position and gunports painted

....and how to pose a kit against a backdrop without an obvious divide line between background and base...use photo editing to lengthen the base part to make it all in one, then curve the backdrop under the kit.

Clever stuff! Thanks for the tip. Is that just printed on a home printer?

Great looking shot - and a great tip in regards to the background.

The 1/72 Seafire one could have been done on a home printer. ( I originally printed onto A3 size paper, but eventually trimmed it down to A4 ) But for 1/48 you'd really need an A3 colour photocopy....fortunately my day job is operating the things! :-D
