Ventura Spitfire PR Mk. XI in 1/72 Scale
Starting in the early 1990's, Ventura of New Zealand turned out a variety of mid-to-late mark 1/72 Spitfires. In fact, I think they have covered everything beyond Spitfire Mk VII and Seafire XV. The kits are injection-moulded but very basic, still I think they are enjoyable builds.
This is a PR XI version that I built in 2000 using a Cooper Details cockpit and kit supplied decals. This boxing contained decals for Norwegian and Danish PR Spits.
There are thing I would do differently today (spending less time on the cockpit and more on the outside for instance) but in general I am still happy with the result. And there are a lot more Ventura Spits in the stash to hone my skills on whenever I get around to building them...
