Tamiya 1/32 scale
Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XVIe

by Mauricio Castro

Tamiya's 1/32 scale Spitfire Mk.IXc is available online from Squadron.com

Here is my 1:32 scale Tamiya Spitfire Mk.XVIe.

This is, IMHO, the sleekest of all Merlin powered Spitfires, Supermarine Spitfire MkXVIe RACER 6. Cooper Air Race July 1949.

I used Lifelike decals 32-011 and Barracuda post war 3 slots wheels with circumferential thread.

I mainly used Tamiya paints that already provide the exact colors for standard RAF camos.

The appearance, once finish, looks like a pure bred racer.
