Tbolt Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 This is Airfix's very nice 1/48th scale Hurricane kit, I really enjoyed this build. I added a few details to the cockpit and gun bay, improved the landing lights by open the structure around them, removed the cowling Dzus fasteners and replaced them with a beading tool, added Brassin wheels, used the Aires exhausts which had to be cut apart and glue back together in the correct place as it has the exhausts are too far apart. Painted with Humbrol enamels and decals from Xtradecal. 62 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachtwulf Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 nicely done! The alteration of the raised fasteners really makes a difference! It gives a much more scale appearance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spitfire31 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Beautiful handiwork! The weathering is tastefully understated, just enough to make the paintwork come alive. Impressed! Kind regards, Joachim 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Headroom Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 That’s a very nice model indeed! I have on finals in a Finnish scheme but yours is at another level. It’s a lovely kit and I didn’t have problems with the wing-fuselage join as some here have experienced. Trevor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
