Built in 1783 as a cargo ship, in 1787 she was purchased by the Royal Navy for the transporting of breadfruit from Tahiti to the Caribbean. The breadfruit was supposed to serve as cheap food for the slaves that worked in the sugar cane plantations. She set sail from England on 23rd December 1787, under the captaincy of Captain William Bligh. After a 10 month voyage she finally arrived in Tahiti, later than planned. As a result of this delay they then had to wait 5 months before setting sail for the Caribbean, her final destination. During this voyage there was a mutiny on board the ship, led by Fletcher Christian. The mutineers then ordered Captain Bligh, along with 18 loyal seamen, aboard the ship’s launch and cast them adrift. Bligh managed the heroic exploit of reaching the island of Timor, after 41 days at sea. See how, step by step, you can replicate a model down to the finest detail and faithful to the original frigate.

With this 1/24 scale Supermarine Spitfire aircraft model kit, you can accurately recreate a real World War II aircraft documented in operational service. The kit is designed for modelers seeking historical accuracy, structural detail and a faithful representation of one of the most iconic fighters of its era. Features of the Supermarine Spitfire Mk IXc EN398 Model This model is designed for builders who want an accurate representation of a real World War II aircraft, combining a solid structure with well-documented historical details. Materials and structure The kit uses carefully selected materials to reproduce the look and feel of the real Spitfire: Wooden structure for fuselage and wings, providing strength and stable assembly. Aluminium plating replicating the original metal skin of the Mk IXc. Zamak (die-cast metal) parts for components requiring rigidity and definition. Decorative vinyls for historically accurate markings and graphic details of the EN398. This combination results in a robust model with a realistic finish, ideal for painting, weathering and advanced detailing techniques. Colours, markings and serial The model reproduces the markings and camouflage scheme of the Spitfire EN398 following RAF guidelines from 1943: Day Fighter Scheme camouflage: Ocean Grey and Dark Green on upper surfaces, Medium Sea Grey on lower surfaces. Sky-coloured spinner and rear fuselage band. “JE-J” codes used by Johnnie Johnson as Wing Commander of the Canadian Wing. Type B roundels (upper wings), Type C (lower wings) and Type C1 (fuselage).Red-white-blue fin flash. Serial number “EN398” on the rear fuselage. Canadian maple leaf emblem, representative of the Canadian Wing. These elements allow the modeler to build a specific, historically documented aircraft rather than a generic Spitfire variant. History of the Spitfire EN398: the Aircraft of Canadian Ace Johnnie Johnson The Spitfire Mk IXc was introduced to counter the Focke-Wulf Fw 190, featuring the Rolls-Royce Merlin 61 engine, which offered improved high-altitude performance and speeds exceeding 650 km/h. Its “C-wing” configuration provided a balanced combination of firepower and manoeuvrability, making it one of the RAF’s most effective fighters during World War II. The EN398 is best known as the primary aircraft flown by James Edgar “Johnnie” Johnson, the RAF’s top-scoring fighter ace with 38 confirmed victories. In 1943, Johnson flew this aircraft as Wing Commander of the Canadian Wing based at Kenley, using it for escort missions, offensive sweeps and operations over occupied France. Its JE-J codes, C-wing configuration and extensive photographic documentation make EN398 one of the most studied and accurately reproduced Spitfires in historical aviation modelling.
