Marcel Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Nice kit, easy to build. Correct resin wheels are made by CMK and a PE gunsight is by Eduard. Gunze paints on top, Tamiya TS 30 Silver Leaf on the bottom /decanted and applied using an airbrush/. Gunze varnish, some oils and Tamiya weathering sets. Thank for looking. 57 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete in a shed Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Lovely little build Marcel. The Belgian markings look great on the early Hurricane. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lunarhighway Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Having build this kit myself i can only say you took it to the next level!! excellent paint job and finish. I found it a very enjoyable build, and a great kit overall, not to mention the Belgian decal option. Just to bad Airfix only included the later four spoke wheels rather than the iconic 5 spoke ones that are accurate. In my case Marabu's set of photo etch spitfire rims came to the rescue. very inspiring! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryanm Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Lovely - great colour scheme. Shame the originals were doomed...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 just finished this one in RAF colours, but after seeing your beautiful model i will have to purchase another and do this scheme. Looks lovely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted February 23, 2021 Author Share Posted February 23, 2021 Thank you guys. I will try to make more photos at the end of the week (the camera battery went flat and I had no time to look for the replacement). As far as I know this particular plane served with No. 2 "Thistle" squadron" - the oldest fighter unit in the Belgian Air Force. It was the second squadron in the first group of the second regiment so it was numbered "2/I/2 Aé". This Hurricane was destroyed during a German attack at Schaffen airfield (Diest) on May 10, 1940. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dogsbody Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Too bad that most of the Hurricane photos haven't been reloaded yet onto the new version of https://www.belgian-wings.be/ They used to have a photo of almost every Hurricane in Belgian service.
