This is my Italeri 1/48 Hurricane MK.1 of RAF No.69 Squadron based in Malta
The kit to be honest is not great, and the engine cowlings fit is very poor, I also struggled to hide this centre seem on the forward fuselage. I also lost an unfortunate part to the Carpet monster which devoured it, but for £8 for a replacement from Italeri I decided I'd go without it.
In the end I am happy with the result, maybe a little too much weathering, but it looks good to me
Feel free to pass judgement peeps

read the review in tmmi and all I can say is

What a great project, the kit alone is fantastic.
Waiting to see the finish

Those the trumpy provided decals, personally I never use them and always go aftermarket when possible.
The build is going fantastic.
Also, I've got the kit in the stash and may well make to the workshop soon, may I ask which paint you have used for the fuselage colour?
-
captured spitfire. interesting idea
The build is great though, looking forward to seeing the completed model

That is coming on nicely, looks fantastic.
I heard some bad press about the instruction manual being quite small and hard to read

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a little help with weathering tips with washes and filters.
I'm trolling the internet at the moment but does anyone have any guides they'd recommend or any tips, my last kit in my eyes became a little disaster and i'm wanting to improve on it.
I basically thinned down some oil paint, brushed it over the kit and then wiped it away with a dam cloth and the black/dark streaks left on the kit do not really look like anything else I've seen in reviews and magazines to compare with, they actually looked quite bad.

I'm usually an aircraft modeller but I've always been tempted by military rail kits, might be worth my first dip into this area as it looks fantastic

looks good and looks like a hellcat, I also like the weathering. A lot of people knock down the kit stating its incorrect, but I think it looks fantastic, good work
-
Looking amazing and BIG so far, Following this one, once the breaks over
I'ld love to buy this kit myself but think the wife might have to say something about that.
-
About to follow you and start the same kit in the midway boxing, following this one too
-
Dam that's an amazing build, how long did it take?
-
Looks like a 100% scale down of the trumpeter 1/32 kit

great aircraft and one of my favourite schemes with those lovely ladies. keep up the great work and looking forward to seeing this complete

wire/rigging on bi-planes and other aircraft
in Modelling Tips
Posted
Hi peeps
I'm looking for a tip on interplane rigging, or wiring on bi-planes etc and other aircraft.
I'm mainly looking for ways of attaching it to the respective model
I've used superglue in the past but I've heard of there possibly being etched parts you can tie/glue the fishing line/thread to so you can save placing glue on the painted surface.
I'm thinking of starting my next kit soon and this would be the hobby boss an-2 colt and hobby boss provided no materials or even instructions on how to attach the inter plane rigging to the aircraft. So I'm just looking for a little help for a novice.
