Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk1 1/24 A50167

First attempt at a larger scale kit, it went together not too badly especially after purchasing it and reading it was so old. It has had its first prang already as I have managed to knock the tailwheel off when taking the photos. I will also need to remember and take photos of the cockpit during the build as I cannot get the camera close enough now it is built.
All build straight out of the box.

Very neat and convincing model! The Airfix 1:24th Hurri isn't an easy build but yours looks really good.

As a minor further improvement, you could mark the panel lines on the "A" decal, on both sides, to avoid a 'glued on top' impression. Also, the ailerons seem to be in a mechanically impossible position – when one goes down, the other one goes up, in principle, for lateral control.

Impressive modelling!

Kind regards,

Joachim
