Nice work, but let me share my 2 comments here:

- I believe the font is incorrect. I don't have a reference, but if it's supposed to be standard RAF, then you can download it from simmerspaintshop.

-I think the dark earth is too dark, it should be lighter relative to the green.

Otherwise it's a nice skin, thanks for sharing!

Hi reflected
I used the photo below as reference.
None of the RAF Fonts at simmerspaintshop
resembled the one in the Photo so I made them.
Dont know why the Earth Brown looks so dark
but can see what you mean.
Will sort it ASAP.
Cheers
Keith

Dunno what RGB values you for the brown use but I got mine from a swatch from the BBMF, values are 107,85,58

Also looking at you skin and comparing it with the photo I noticed that on the chin the camo/underside line runs along the panel line but the skin has the earlier 'curved' lower line.

Just an observation mind

For the colour Value,Seems like this one needs a little tweeking.

Nice skin! It's good to see the Spitfires without great areas of bare metal.

Re the darkness -The TF patch darkens the skins very much. It's like a coating of dark brown varnish. Though the skins look better in the sun. I don't take screenshots in the shade.
