migmadmarine Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) Liking that shade with the lightening bolt, though I was interpreting it in the photo and that color profile from the kit I posted as being a perhaps white arrow that had been painted over with some green color afterwards (perhaps a standard VVS color?) to cover it. Anyone think there might be some credence to this? Were I to build that kit, I figure that would be the way I'd paint it. Edited October 19, 2017 by thenorm 1

Anyone think there might be some credence to this? Were I to build that kit, I figure that would be the way I'd paint it. Thing is, a lot of those mods were applied 'in the field' weren't they? In most cases I would go with 'artistic licence'. If there are no definitive images to prove otherwise then that's all we have, isn't it? NB A lot of the paints they used 'in the field' were diluted as well to make them go further, weren't they? Edited October 19, 2017 by Raptorattacker

The mouth was a bitch to do but it's done as well as I am prepared to do. I am certainly no perfectionist but I DO know when something looks good and when to stop!
Stlg13/Sgt_Schultz Posted October 19, 2017 Posted October 19, 2017 Thankyou Sgt. The mouth was a bitch to do but it's done as well as I am prepared to do. I am certainly no perfectionist but I DO know when something looks good and when to stop! Yeah I'm no skinner but if I was, I don't think I'd be attempting this one any time soon, haha. I think it looks pretty damn spot on, I can't tell the difference to be honest. Thanks again Raptor, jolly good show!.
Raptorattacker Posted October 19, 2017 Author Posted October 19, 2017 (edited) The skin is for the Supermarine Spitfire Vb but is based on a MkVIII variant of the 'Grey Nurse' 457 Squadron of the RAAF and was done as a request. A58-602/RG-V was flown by Wing Commander R.H. 'Bobby' Gibbes, Wing Leader No.80 Wing Sattler Airstrip, December 1944. Skin can be downloaded HERE Have fun and shoot straight mates!! Customary heads - up to @ICDP for the 4k template. PS Before anyone says, yes the Ace is the wrong way up but hey, it's a model!! Tee! Hee! Edited November 17, 2017 by Raptorattacker 1 7

Raptorattacker Posted October 20, 2017 Author Posted October 20, 2017 Nice work . Thankyou sir! Thankyou very much. I think the 'Speed Spitfire' is next and then I think I may have a break from Spitfires for a while.
A-E-Hartmann Posted October 20, 2017 Posted October 20, 2017 The spitfire is nice in flight but also for skins. The Spitfire is quite easy and fast for skins. 1

NOT when you're re-modelling that mouth it aint!! That thing crosses three profiled borders does that. As you know, what you think on the flat map AINT what you get on the wireframe!!

I look forward to it...BTW some versions of the color scheme have the lightening strike & numbers in bright yellow...
Raptorattacker Posted October 24, 2017 Author Posted October 24, 2017 I look forward to it...BTW some versions of the color scheme have the lightening strike & numbers in bright yellow... Yeah, a lot of the pictures of historic machines vary quite a lot. I'll get into some research and get the most plausible.
E69_julian57 Posted October 24, 2017 Posted October 24, 2017 (edited) Skin 4k Supermarine Spitfire F. Mk IXE «2 Red» operated by the 19th IAP of the Air Defence Force, Vas’kovo airfield near Arkhangel’sk, the autumn of 1948. The unusual (for a Spitfire) colour scheme of dark green with pale blue undersurfaces was probably applied locally. The very faded tactical code was outlined in white; the rudder trim tab was painted red. National insignia were applied to the fuselage, fin and wing undersurfaces Update 26/10/2017 small color arrangements Download http://www.mediafire.com/file/rad2u93svwhrtkm/SpitfireMkVb_4k_2red_vvs_19iap.dds Edited October 26, 2017 by E69_julian57 1 3
