Red Dog Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 These Arma Hobby kits are becoming more and more common amongst these pages. Another fine example Ali. May have to look into where I can obtain a few. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dandie Dinmont Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 See, us lesser modellers would only think of starting one build at a time. You’re making us feel inadequate (not that I need much help with that, at least in the field of modelling). You’ll probably be finished them by next Saturday as well. Really looking forward to both of these. Craig. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going with the Hunter next anyway but the Komet arrived from my pre-order and I knew I wanted to build it and also knew that if it went into the pile It would languish there for some time. I may be overreaching here but what the hell it'll be fun. Cheers, Alistair 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

72modeler Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 What's not to like? It's a Hurricane and an Arma one, to boot! Love your choice of scheme and markings, too! Now you need to do a Mk IId to go with this one. Mike 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Tony, My decision was made when there was Azure Blue involved, as soon as I looked at the instructions when the Kit arrived from Arma. It's only taken me a year to get round to it.

jackroadkill Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Wow, that's come out pretty damned nice, hasn't it?! What a superb-looking beast she is, and in a very attractive scheme, too. You've done a cracker with this one, sir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanC Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Nice one. Looks good in the Middle East scheme. I've done the Arma Mk IIC as a night fighter but now fancy a desert Hurribomber too! All the best, Ian 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishplanebeer Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Super build and finish, absolutely 100% a Hurri and could easily pass for 48th scale. You mention you used a Flory wash so did you do this as the last process after applying the final varnish coat? The reason I ask is that as I used a Flory wash on my last project and when I then applied the final matt varnish coat it all disappeared!

Winenut Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Great build and excellent scheme I have to look further into these Arma Hobby kits! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
