All respect and thanks to Leif Ohlssen for this spitfire. My first try at one of the legends. Not too happy with the end result since my fingers feel like tree branches doing the small parts and the printer disagreeing with every colour setting I throw its way. Not too bad for first try but loads of space for improvement.

Great job westley. You did a nice clean build. I have the same problem with my printer, so I'm going to try having my next model printed at a store.

Thanks appreciate. Seems to be an issue lot of printers have these days

Looks good here.

I'm very happy to see that someone actually built this redesigned version of Nobi's generous free model. Did you have any issues with the wing design (inner/outer skin as gluetabs, etc)?

Good job!

Overall it was quiet interseting for me. Since its my first plane in this scale I can't say if there is any errors. Just maybe the instructions got me bit confused. Especially where the wings connect to the fuselage. Bit more practice and I should be able to build with the big dogs.

That's very well done for your first airplane build.
