Academy and Airfix 1/48 SEAC Spitfires
As part of my “All the Spitfires possible” collection I present the Airfix Mk VIII done up as a 2 sqn Indian Air Force Spit out of Miranshah in 1945 in the old earth and green with white ID bands scheme. However the machine has the later blue and sky reduced size roundels with a medium blue and white spinner and rare nude nose art. Indian Spits normally carried only a single letter ID in white.
Next to it is the Academy Mk XIVe in the markings of Sqn Ldr G Kerr’s 152 sqn (East India) RAF based at Double Moorings also in 1945. The decals are exchanged with the Mk VIII, but the sharp amongst you will be able to catch the UM-C instead of the UM-G that he had on his Mk XIVe LF.
Any way the idea was to experiment with both the grey/green and earth/green schemes. They are hand mixed colours with pastel shading and I hope you like them.
