Hi Matthew,
Are you still planning on doing the chipped wing Spitfire? That is a must have for me.

I posted a while back to make sure there was still interest.
But there was none.

I know I was siked up to do it.
But grass did not grow under my feet I did the Humvee turret and side car.
After the sidecar makes it's run I am going to do another FULL BUILD.

I sure hope you consider the Spitfire Matthew, you could make a beauty.

I think Pickel should re-post his Spitfire poll. I think he would get quite a few more hits this time around.

I would be in for a clipped wing Spitfire.
As long as it was painted,and $250 or less.
And I would prefer a late model,Griffon powered Spit.Although I understand that this is almost a totally different aircraft than the 21C MK1.
Not sure if it could be done for the $250 price point.
Matthew,if you build it for a decent price point,you will have some sales.

I'm one of those armor guys...a spit might be cool but I'd like to see a full build without wings....

maybe something German.

For a decent price and pre-painted.... definitively.

We still need more new 1/18 aircraft!

I'm with Snake on this one...I'd definitely buy one if total price (less shipping of course) was around $250.00.
Are you talking scratch built or modifying existing 1/18 Spitfire?
