Default RE: TF Spitfire build

well, i've finally made it back to my shop and have had a chance to do some more on the tailfeathers. here are a couple of shots of the rudder. originally, i wanted to shape the rudder with a pointy top to resemble the enlarged rudder that some MkIX's had so that is why these pics show that modification. however, i could not find any MkIX's in desert camo that had the enlarged rudder so i will be removing the tip and making it more like the plans. also, i intend to have a non-functional trim tab which just needs to be separated at this point. the leading edge has been rounded instead of beveled.
