| This 48 scale Tamiya kit is a test bed for the Makatar Masks of Royal Air Force Spitfires, so all roundels and the R-S codes are all individual masks, the Insignia White is first applied, followed by the Insignia Red, Followed by the Insignia Blue and finally followed by the Yellow boarder on the fuselage roundels, the fin flash is also painted. The model is still an on going project which has stalled for over 15 months, due to a series of consignment and contract builds. Note:- The aircraft is a Clipped Wing Spitfire Mk Vb and is an option with the Tamiya kit, the camouflage is the Temperate Sea Scheme. These Masks have been used on several model subjects since, ranging from 24 scale to 72 scale in various aircraft subjects, such as:-
