Kotare 1/32 Spitfire Mk I

By Rod Bettencourt

Spitfire Mk.I of 234 Squadron, August 1940.


After seeing some of the beautiful builds posted here, I thought I would give it a try.


For aftermarket, I used a Quinta cockpit set and HGW seatbelts were used.

Paints were Model Master. I ended up using the kits decals which were just fantastic.

I was waiting for an overcast day to get that England airfield look. Pictures were taken with my I-phone. I was hoping for a few more pictures but the rain came down. Outside photos are far easier for me. In the end it will look scale, or it will not.

I sure look forward to more kits from Kotare.

Thanks for looking and all comments are welcomed.
