About product

Spitfire Mk.IXc British fighter 1:48 (Ginger Cat)

A plastic kit of the British fighter Supermarine Spitfire Mk.IXc in 1:48 scale from the Turkish brand Ginger Cat. For it the manufacturer gives printed resin parts, photo-etched parts, a 3D cockpit decal, a masking template and five liveries on offer. The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted, and glue and paints are not included in the package.

The real subject

The Spitfire Mk.IX came about as a quick answer to the German Fw 190: a Rolls-Royce Merlin engine with a two-stage supercharger was fitted into the airframe of the older version, and it gave the aircraft performance at high altitude. The two-stage engine needed larger radiators under both wings, so the Mk.IX is recognized by its symmetrical radiator baths. The letter c added to the designation means the universal wing, which allowed cannon and machine guns to be combined.

Building and painting tips

Glue the plastic parts with a thin cement for plastic, which melts the joint, and apply a thin layer into the seam with a fine brush. Fill and sand the seams, then spray the whole model with a primer, which will reveal any remaining grooves. Decals hold best over a gloss intermediate coat, and a matte clear coat pulls the result together. The cleanest color transitions come from an airbrush; when spraying by hand, apply the paint in several thin coats rather than one heavy one.

Who the model is for

  • builders of British Second World War fighters in 1:48 scale
  • modelers who want a kit with photo-etched parts and a 3D cockpit decal in the box
  • anyone interested in the most numerous version of the Spitfire
  • more experienced builders used to resin and photo-etched parts

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
