Stuart's Spitfire mk.I***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.

Progress over the past week has been hardly anything - but I've finally started to paint...

Just getting some white on today - hopefully the black tomorrow.

And I actually made some progress - finished painting the undersides - well almost, I have the tail wheel tyre and that touch up to do in the wheel bay...

And I got a coat of Dark Earth on the uppers

Starting to look like something now.

It certainly looks like it's getting there; the black/white underside looks ace

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing
