Hairtrigger Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 I like that, you certainly can turn them out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meatbox8 Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 That's a beauty, Steve. A great paint finish, especially the natural metal, and an interesting scheme. Those Irish Air Corps roundels have to be some of the most attractive ever to adorn an aircraft. I wonder how the 'Yin and Yang' style came about. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winenut Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Top stuff Steve Totally a version I've not seen! Interesting colours and nice touch on the landing lights Well tidy Hurri indeed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jackhmn Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 That is one lovely model. Never seen a Hurri from the Irish air Corps before, but unusual is often what attracts the eye! (ît did mine anyway ) Cheers and thanks for sharing! Jack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two colour style was called the "Celtic Boss" and was based on ancient Celtic designs. The three colour version in use today is known as the triskelion. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Fantastic! The scheme is rather unusual (to me) and looks cool. Though not my preferred scale (1/48 I assume) I hear Hasegawa's kit is a very nice one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buzby061 Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) Cracking Hurri. Nice to see it in IAC markings. I’m thinking of doing my Walrus in an Irish scheme, it’s working its way slowly to the workbench.
