  4. AIMS 1/72 decal sheet 72D021 re-print arrived the other day - contact me at [email protected] if interested. I am based in Hungary. if you in the UK maybe best to wait to Hannants have it in stock. Thanks for looking. For more Ju 88 G-1 and G-6 options remember sheet 72D027.
  5. Hi everyone, A few weeks ago my DH Vampire decals arrived in 1/72 and 1/48. There are available already via Hannants but if you live in Europe perhaps it is easier for you to get direct from me as I live in Hungary. As for the 1/32 sheets they are on their way to me as I write. Contact me at [email protected] if interested, thanks. Shown below are just the 1/72 and 1/32 products as the 1/48 is identical to the 1/72 in all but product number. John
  6. Thanks just a shame so much extra money needs spent on the kit but the rivets are a must! The Eduard exhausts, Barracuda Studios wheels, my AIMS conversion, Rotol spinner and props set and AIMS tail wheel fork - all can be done without and just make nice model from the kit with the kit decals but without the rivets it is just wrong - everything else can be made a little better without extra money
  7. Thanks guys - much appreciated please also see the Ready for Inspection photos, thanks again https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235130942-aims-132-prtac-r-hawker-hurricane-conversion-of-revell-mk-iib-kit/
  8. AIMS 1/32 PR/Tac R Hawker Hurricane gallery shots (taken outside - better resolution but the dark blue still looks almost black just like in the WWII photos)
  9. Keith it is a dark purple blue actually - just the flash making it look darker whereas under my modelling lamp it looks too light - I cannot win!
  10. AIMS 1/32 PR/Tac R Hawker Hurricane build update - Final details The HGW shoulder straps and back of seat strap were attached - it was then that I realised that HGW gave the instructions and the parts for the Sutton harness on a Spitfire in the Hurricane set - the shoulder straps are joined at the top by a oblong plate on the Hurricane so I had to fabricate that and slice up the harness accordingly. Remember that if the stirrup is down then the hand hold is open! Some breather tubes at the bottom of the engine as well as the fuel indicator at the top of the cowling will make the front end look better. You might also spot the three handles added to the sliding hood as well as the windscreen cleaner pipe at the bottom of the windscreen. The tail area had my AIMS early tail wheel fork attached and the trim tab mass balance fabricated with its cables - as well as the rudder cables. Before the main gear doors were located the flexible brake line at the top was made read and the line at the front of the door added and fed backwards once the door was added. Back to the windscreen and you can see that I used sticky backed mirror material from a hobby shop for the rear view mirror. The only other thing to mention - back at the front end is that I had used one of my two Rotol prop and spinner sets. And that is that. I hope you enjoyed following this. Thanks for looking, John
  11. But given how few people are looking at these posts and leaving likes I guess it is the wrong place to post pictures of British aircraft lol
  12. It is a crying shame that so much extra work is needed when you think of what Arma have achieved in 1/48!
  13. AIMS 1/32 PR/Tac R Hawker Hurricane build update The end is nigh! Pastels, oil streaks, oil splatters and silver pencil scratches and highlighting of the rivets. Ready for final construction and some some small additional details like the handles on the rear canopy and the trim tap mass balance on the rudder etc. Really glad I did those rivets as they kind of make the model what it is.
