Seamus Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Evening all, Just finished off my latest build, Airfix's early ragwing Hurricane. I've hastily thrown this together as my original intention for build 13 hasn't gone to plan and has been shelved for the time being. Built completely OOB and finished as usual with Hataka Orange Line and Alclad, with W&N Galeria Matt to finish.

IanC Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Thrown together? Everything seems to have landed in the right place. Lovely neat build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackroadkill Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I wish I could throw stuff together like that! She's a beauty, and in a much-overlooked paint scheme, too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tbolt Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 Very nice Hurricane. I wish I could hastily build and come up with something so good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff G Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 This is by far the best 1/72 Hurricane I've ever seen. Well done! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky Keg Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Maybe I should start “throwing my kits together” like you do Shaun because I absolutely love the way your`s has turned out. A great addition to any Hurricane collection!!!!!! Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shark444 Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 That looks absolutely STELLAR! 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangseat Posted May 28, 2020 Share Posted May 28, 2020 Beautiful, clean build, lovely! Shows off the lines of the kit well and makes me want to build the one that's lurking in my pile. This could be used as box art on the kit (if Airfix were still into that sort of thing). Its a shame there are no wingtip lights in the kit, but painting them on is a bit dubious I suppose, especially when the rest of the build is so clean and honest. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F-32 Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Looks really good, I'm building one at the moment that is fighting me, the cockpit seems a little over engineered for some reason and the fit's not great either 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only the wing trailing edges need good attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
