As I decided to participate in a Spitfire groupbuild, I got this one going.

Nice boxart

Inside the box it looked like this:

opened box, pic 1

pic 2

It contains quite a lot of parts. Two sets of wings, wheels and propeller. Probably to make different versions, but only one set of wings is needed for the supplied decal options. The choices are either one of two Mk IX or one Mk XVI with clipped wingtips.

The first thing I did was cutting away all cockpit parts and both fuselage halves.

Cockpit and fuselage parts

All parts cleaned up and ready for paint.
