    Supermarine Spitfire

    John recently challenged me to do something british with a prop on facebook, I posted this spitfire I did about 10 years ago. It wasn't that badly done so I thought why not update a bit. Here is the progress so far.

    Re: Supermarine Spitfire

    Does anyone have good links to walkarounds by the way? They seem to be awefully hard to come by.

    Re: Supermarine Spitfire

    Hey Supah, looking good! I must get around to doing a Spitfire some day ..... some day (eyes glaze over as he imagines it actually happening, unicorns prancing across rainbow-strewn fields with pink pigs fluttering across the sky ...)

    I've got pics of a Mk IXE from Prague if they are any help:

    Re: Supermarine Spitfire

    I've sent you some files by WeTransfer. Hope it's useful. Keep up the good work: it's always a challenge to rework an old profile IMO.

    Re: Supermarine Spitfire

    So did I!

    John, the photo you posted is a bit misleading as it's not a pure sideview. The bulge is less pronounced in profile.

    $20 is an absolute bargain - I'm sure he forgot a 0!
