contained Tamiya's new big scale Spitfire IX. It looks brilliant in the box but the real test comes with the construction. As I mentioned on the AI site, I needed the kit for reference to complete AI's 'RAMROD' that is to be specifically designed for this kit.
As expected, the kit decals arn't accurate, in particular the depiction of JE-J. That's why AI intends to include markings for this a/c.
This blog is starting to become a a model makers blog and to some extent an advert for Tamiya. This is not what this blog is all about. It's intended to cover anything Spitfire related and also a broad spectrum of things relating to aviation history.
