Re: Spitfire MK XIV e WIP

I agree about the panel lines and rivets: you might want to make them more discreet. They are not particularly visible on an aircraft usually, and are mostly "guessed" by the eye because of light reflections/dirt/paint chipping. A combinaison of these things should make them obvious enough but not overpowering.

I'd also suggest reinforcing the definition of shapes (Blowhard might go for you if you don't, lol).

Aside from that, it's very nice. Keep us posted on your progress if you will.

As for stencils, have you tried the AJ-Press monography n°5 (Mk IX-XVI) or the Aero Detail n°27 (Mk VI-XVI). Also Pod Lupa n°3 (VII, IX, XVI) has some detailled pics. PM me if you need help.
