Spitfire XIV photo help please

I am looking for interesting schemes for MK XIV spitfires, i’d prefer period photos but profiles would be good too.

Also did the XIV carry underwing stores? any help would be great.

Thanks

Ben

Try www.hannants.co.uk. Put in decals in the search part (youll know what I mean when you get there. Enter in the same area the aircraft your after hit enter. Will show you lots of colour plates featured on the decal sheets. Unsure if still available but Aeromaster did some craking sheets of the XIV. Highback and low
