Looking good Daz, I agree the second green you used looks much better, the other green looks more like the colour they used on Japanese a/c.
Looking back on the photo of the parts, is that a standing pilot they give you? If so is he any good?

My work bench is starting to look like Portsmouth Naval Dockyard.

He's a little basic, but yeah, he comes with it.

As always, a fun build. These kits never disappoint me, but then, I am easily amused!!!

Nice one Daren! Will the pilot be putting in an appearance?
Best wishes

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

Another museum quality finish Daz....have you ever thought of opening your own History of the Spitfire Museum? 
"Spits, SLUFS and Rock 'n' Roll"
Re: Spitfire LF-XVI "high back" - **FINISHED**
Cheers, PT.
I've got a few dozen built, so it might not be too difficult to achieve!

Well, I try!
I don't think mine are anywhere near as good as some examples I've seen in this GB, but I like them!
