1/72 Spitfire Mk Vb

Just a little model I've had lying around for bloody ages and never finished (hence the missing cannons and aerial lol). It's a Revell 1/72 Spitfire Mk Vb CW.

Yes it did and this version of Spit was (along with version VD) hated by British pilots. Matter of fact, they were pronouncing the VD version (roman numeral 5 and D) as "vee-dee" which is an acronym for veneral disease. :D
