Here she is fellas, I'm pretty happy with how it turned out, especially being the first time I've used a spray can to paint a model. Built OOB with Aeromaster's excellent RAAF Spitfires decal sheet.
Many thanks for all the kind words and support through out the build!!
Cat - 2
scale - 1/48
Kit - Airfix Spitfire MkVc/Seafire IIIc
Decals - Aeromaster Aussie Spits MkV Pt. II (48-667)

Thanks for the kind words guys! Terry, there are five other decal sheets that I know of that depict different Spitfires from this squadron. If NMF spits are your thing, there's the possibility of a nice diorama
