You'll find that a lot of kits at the time yours was produced, had the separate red dots for the roundels as the MOD attempted to copyright the RAF Roundel (and lost in 2004).
@@MOS6510Models Don't forget that the other reason is because the registry of the colours during the printing can make the red dots really off-centre. If they come as individual transfers then you can get them right (or at least better). I noticed the yellow on the roundel in this one was slightly off too
IT looks like the car kits from fujimi like the one i am doing at the moment nicely moulded and the fit will be nice but just needs a little more detail great video liked the review
Those paint numbers are all for Gunze Mr Color paints. Humbrol would not have been readily available in Japan. Note that instructions call for you to fill in the panel lines for the outer machine gun bay access panels. The Spitfire e-wing had only two gun bays per wing and was usually fitted with a .50 cal machine gun in the innermost bay and a 20 mm cannon in the outer bay. If you have the PR.19 kit there are even more panels to fill in as that aircraft wasn’t armed.

@@ModelMinutes yes that’s a valid point. I guess modern day decals don’t have that issue.. or not that I’ve seen I guess
@@MOS6510Models true, high-quality manufacturers have pretty much nailed it now
