Passenger door. Paintwork DONE

 

So i guess the paintwork is done for the Spitfire. After 10 Year struggle and learning curve.
It's far from perfect but maybe one day when i win the lottery i will give it to a proffesional painter...

The bonnet paintjob

 

A warm december day (12°) was all it took to paint the bonnet

So far i'm happy with the results.

Now the left and right doors and i'm done painting! (i think)
