| Got myself 3 Airfix kits last week. F 16 A/B versions in 1;72 Supermarine Spitfire Mk Vc with RAAF markings with new tooled wings. And an oldy but goodie Mk 1 Hurricane in 1:72 with Robert Stanford Tucks markings. Its not the most detailed one around but I've almost finished it now!

That one threw me completely when I opened the box; the new wings have recessed panel lines, but the others are still raised. Mine is 90% finished, but be warned the new wings look way too thick. I've just brought an Academy Spitfire XVI, Revell Me 262, Floatfire and a a Revell F-14 all in 1:72 | |

| Mine arrived today, and I also have an Airfix DC-3. For the Spitfire XIV I fancy doing something a little different; does anyone know who used them besides the RAF or Commonwealth? |

| Check out this site: Supermarine Spitfire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia about halfway down it gives a list of countries that used the Spitfire. Doesn't give what model type but might be a start for you.

| My Aichi E16A1 turned up today, cost me £3.50. Was expecting some dreadful Eastern European from the 1920's. Turns out to be a very nice looking kit with a load of resin parts chucked in. Result! |

| My 1/32 Hasegawa Dora's construction is pretty much done. I just haven't put pieces that aren't supposed to be the outside colour on yet. My decals from EE just shipped yesterday, and due to their proximity to me, I should be painting it up in a day or two. My brother also just got the Hasegawa 1/32 Spitfire Mk.Vb which he is going to convert into a Seafire with FAA (Pacific) roundels that he ordered and are on their way.

| "Big" shopping Catch22. I'm wonder where you and your brother set these models.

| Set or get? There's actually a store in Edmonton that had the Dora in stock and ordered in the Spitfire for us. They actually carry a LOT of models, mostly tanks, but like I said, they'll order stuff in for you.
