I've been wanting to take a shot at airbrushing for a while now. So I finally gave in and decided to give the Benchcraft Airbrush Compressor Kit a try. It did not disappoint! Although I've got a whole lot to learn, this was a fantastic, entry level, setup for me. I can't wait to learn to do some proper weathering!
For my first project.. I converted my Commander , which has always reminded me of the Spitty airframe, into the image of the Spitfire PR11 MB950. Even went as far as purchasing the the Spitfire's (MRC's) extra plastic parts and installing the exhaust. In doing so, I've created a monster...Wannabe Schmitty MD138! Yes.. I know it's not a Spitfire. It's just my old Commander made in the image of an old Spitfire. One of these days I'll be able to get an actual Spitfire, but this will make me happy until that day comes.
The attached pics are the finished glory shots. I also added a shot of the Spitfire MB950 I modeled it after... for your viewing pleasure.
