Build video of Tamiya's 1/48 scale model Spitfire Mk.1 (2018 tooling - reference 61119)
Part 1 - Starting the Build
In this part I start the build. As with most kit this focusses primarily on the cockpit, which is highly details for a plastic moulded kit in 48th scale.
The kit also includes a small (unpainted) photoetch fret enabling extra detail to be added to the cockpit (and other areas), such as the straps for the harness.
Once the cockpit is complete the fuselage halves are brought together.
