Italeri 1307 1/72 Spitfire Mk.VI Model

The Supermarine Spitfire is widely regarded as a hallmark of WWII fighter design. This Italeri 1/72 kit recreates the Mk.VI variant with careful attention to the aircrafts characteristic form and wartime markings.

Evolution and Role of the Mk.VI

From its first flights before the war, the Spitfire underwent many updates to meet combat needs. The Mk.VI reflected improvements for operations at altitude, including extended wings and a pressurised cockpit for pilots operating over higher airspace.

Scale Building and Detailing

Geared toward modellers who value accuracy, the kit results in a model of approximately 12.6 cm and captures the Spitfire outline faithfully. The boxed kit contains decals and suggested paint schemes so builders can choose historically recognised liveries.

Specifications

  • Dimensions: Length 12.6 cm

The decals supplied represent a selection of period markings commonly associated with Mk.VI units and are suitable for historically accurate builds.
Intermediate modellers will find the kit rewarding; novices can complete it too but should allow extra time for small part handling and painting.
Yes, enthusiasts often add fine rigging and subtle weathering to enhance realism. Use thin thread and light washes to avoid overpowering the small 1/72 scale details.
