**** FINISHED: 1/48th Spitfire MkVIII, 136 Sqn RAF, Burma, Commonwealth GB.

[Airframes]

Username: Airframes.
Name: Terry.
Category: Judge.
Scale: 1/48th.
Kit: ICM Spitfire MkVIII.
Accessories: Some scratch-building, 'Almarks' roundel decals, painted code letters.
So here's the aircraft flown by F/Sgt R W 'Bob' Cross, DFM, in February 1944, with which he scored one Army 01 (Oscar) destroyed, and one damaged, both confirmed, whilst flying from Rhumkhapalong, Burma.
The model was built as a commission for Max and Barbara, relatives of the late Bob Cross, and I hope it provides a fitting tribute to the highest-scoring RAF pilot in the CBI.
NOTE: First six pics are without the display base, for clarity.

Terry, you've captured the character of this machine beautifully. I can just feel the sun beating down on that parched airfield and the dusty wings too hot to touch. Well done my friend!
