TAMIYA’S 1:48 SUPERMARINE SPITFIRE MK.I
When Tamiya released their 1:32 scale Spitfire Mk.IXc in 2009,
they set a new standard for plastic model kits. As one of the
most popular subjects in the history of scale modelling, we
should not be surprised to find that Tamiya has now released
an all-new Spitfire kit in 1:48 scale.
Tamiya’s brand new 1:48 scale Spitfire Mk.I delivers innovative
design, outstanding detail, an accurate outline and crisp,
subtle surface textures.
This model has nothing at all in common with their 1993 kit.
Between these covers, we provide an exhaustive step-by-step
illustrated guide to building Tamiya’s 1:48 scale Spitfire Mk.I
straight from the box plus tips on painting and weathering.
Plenty of inspiration is offered with two different configurations
plus a conversion to the Photo Reconnaissance version with
models by Brett Green and Marcus Nicholls.
Also included are a walkaround of a surviving Spitfire Mk.I,
a summary of other Spitfire Mk.I model kits available
a summary of other Spitfire Mk.I model kits available
in 1:48 scale, a list of available accessories and
decals plus a catalogue of helpful references. Only
