This week and next week work was and will be hell on earth. That is why I only had a little time for painting and miniatures. Around monday I decided to point my attention to a prepainted 1:48 Spitfire by a company (unknown to me till about two weeks ago) called NewRay. A buddy bought it for me at his local toy shop and it only cost 5 €. It needs only little assembly and everything is screwed into place. Now the detail is not that perfect, but the cost is unbeatable, so that you could even build mission markers in the form of downed planes and what not. And even in this state...it's not that bad really.The wheels are retractable, which means you could use it as a flying or as a parked plane.
I decided to paint up the pilot as he was only plastic grey... It was nice to paint something at all this weekend and it gave me time to try out a new recipe for the English uniform brown and go from cars to humans.
New Ray has other planes on its catalogue as well, but I am not sure which ones. One thing I do know though is that their biplanes are 1:35, so be careful there.
That's it for this week.
