Tamiya 1/32 Spitfire MK.IXc "Skalski's Circus"
By Ivan Bettoni
I present my latest work: Spitfire MK.IXc belonging to145 SQUADRON RAF on the Tunisian Goubrine airbase during April 1943, piloted by Polish ace Stanislaw Skalski.
The kit is Tamiya 60319, "seasoned" with aftermarket various resins BarracudaCast for tires and various parts of the cabin, and Eduard photo-etch.
The coloring was done by free hand with acrylics Xtracrylics, as my habit I tried to minimize the use of decals, replacing them, where possible, with masking. For the weathering I tried different filters of the True Earth.
