Supermarine Spitfire
is a British single-seat, prop fighter plane most famous for its WWII achievements. It was designed as a float plane in the 30s, but it proved so successful, that the design was transformed into a land-based fighter airplane. Later variants included carrier-based planes as well. Spitfire is a legend by any means and a symbol for WWII around the World and especially for its country of origin – the United Kingdom. Numerous versions were built with more than 20 000 examples of different modifications completed. The Spitfire served for years after WWII, with some fighters serving well into the 60s of the 20th century.

Spitfire Camouflage
varies in colors, sometimes ranging from warm earth tones to light gray nuances. There were two patterns of the camo – A and B. One was the mirror image of the other. Initially both of those were implemented, but soon after, only one remained as a standard. The mask set represents camouflage Type A. Colors were changed constantly due to lack supplies and specifically – high-quality paints, which was typical scarcity for the period. Despite that, the planes kept their camo outlines, even though they looked very different /color-wise/ one from another. On its belly, Spitfire was painted in light gray and sometimes in black /or black & white/ colors. This mask set is designed for 32nd scale Spitfire kits.
