Going to be busy for the next couple of weeks.....  ;D

The Supermarine Spitfire.

Manage to find one, beat up but still usable. Going to have fun on this. The JU-52 IWC plane.

The unique part about the model, instead of the BP on the wings, this has the Mk XV on the wing.

Will do. Now waiting for my air brush to arrive.

The more common JU-52 with the BP on the wing. This one is 1/250 scale and is made of metal.

The BP on the wing. It is on the bottom of the other wing.

Yes sir, I believe IWC did. The plane actually came to Malaysia many many years ago on its round the world trip. The metal model is made by Schabak while the plastic model is by Revell.
