Hi Darius,
Thanks for sending in your Seafire article.  I'm catching up on a backlog of
e-mails....sorry for the slow response.  I'll e-mail you when your article
goes on ARC.

A few years ago Airfix released two superb late model Spitfire kits in
quarter scale.  One was for the Spiftire F22/24 and the other for the
Seafire FR46/47.  These are "tamigawa" quality kits at Airfix prices
although sheet has the usual register problems in places.  Nevertheless they
are good value for money.

Both Seafire models were built out of the box using the kit decals.  As is
my wont I primed the assembled kits with Halfords grey spray acrylic primer
and brush painted the models with Humbrol enamels.

I hope that the reports of financial woes at Airfix as reported in the ARC
discussion forum are not as bad as they appear to be.  Their latest Hawk
kits are excellent and it would be a tragedy if this great mould-breaking
company was to fade from the scene!
