Val_Ukraine Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Very nice new kit from Polish Arma Hobby company. Easily the best Hurricane kit in the scale. No filler needed if you take some care preparing the parts for gluing. The only shortcoming is clear parts that are a bit on the thick side. I've managed to spoil the original LK-A letters so these on the model are from quite old Legato kit. And I decided to do almost no weathering as I like this livery clean. Thanks for viewing! 44 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Brantley Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Oh, very nice job Val! She looks sweet. 👍 I thought the markings looked familiar. 😉 her larger "twin" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This overall black Hurricane I've wanted to put on the shelf from the very beginning of my modelling hobby. So it took me less than 50 years to make it true. 21 minutes ago, Gary Brantley said: I thought the markings looked familiar. 😉 her larger "twin" Thanks Gary! Her larger twin is very attractive! Looks like elder sister! Edited May 24, 2020 by Val_Ukraine 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spitfire31 Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Excellent Hurricane with potent artillery on board! She was flown in 1941–1942 on intruder missions and as you can see, she was equipped with a VHF radio set = no aerial wire (the VHS antenna was integral to the mast). Beautiful modelling, though!

Joachim Hello Thank you for the picture. Not VHS (Video Home System) but VHF (Very High Frequency) 😀 But you're right : the higher the frequency, the shorter the antenna.

IanC Posted June 3, 2020 Share Posted June 3, 2020 Neat work there Val. It looks great. I've got one of these on the go at the moment, but it's stalled as I just can't decide on the paint and markings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
