These are water based acrylic paints. However it’s usually best to prime the plastic parts first before painting and the tamiya spray primer is ideal. A couple of the paints only come in aerosol format. Hobbycraft stock the paints for £2 each if you need to get painting now but they don’t stock the aerosol type. I found it’s cheaper to obtain the paints from a proper model store like Emodels. They have been really good. You will be able to order all paints in one go as you will need quite a few for this model. Check out plasmo by David damek on YouTube for hints and tips. He’s good. Good luck Andy **Q: Do I also need a compressor?** A: No you do not need a compressor to build the kit and it will depend on how you want to paint it. You can paint it by hand but if you wish to paint it with an air brush then you will need a compressor. Kind regards **Q: Hi, what is the wingspan of the spitfire** A: Hi, the wingspan of this Spitfire is 23cm. thanks Gaugemaster **Q: Can anyone tell my the size of this aeroplane in feet and inches please l am old school.** A: Hi sorry for delay .... 235mm wing span 191mm fuselage length Wingspan roughly 9.5 inch Fuselage roughly 7.5 inch Hope this helps ## Frequently Bought Together - Tamiya 61119 1/48 Supermarine Spitfire MK.I Plastic Model Airplane Kit - Tamiya 87038 Extra Thin Cement Glue Fine Tip 40ml - TAMIYA 300061063 – 1: 48 WWII Model Set Messerschmitt BF109E-4/7 Trop --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ni/products/100340998-61119-supermarine-spitfire-mki-1-48-scale](https://www.desertcart.ni/products/100340998-61119-supermarine-spitfire-mki-1-48-scale) --- *Product available on Desertcart Nicaragua* *Store origin: NI* *Last updated: 2026-11-08*
