Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane MK.I

[AliGauld]

This was one that I just wanted to do as a bit of fun to take my mind off the other stuff on the bench.

I've never built an Airfix Hurricane ever, so, it's a new experience.

 

WIP Here,

 

 

Primed with Tamiya Neutral Grey.

Painted with ColourCoats Interior Grey Green, Dark Earth, Dark Green, FAA/RAF Yellow, Tamiya Flat Aluminium, Rubber Black, Nato Black, Clear Green, Clear Orange, Clear Red and Vallejo Model Air Eau de Nil.

Washed with Flory Dark Dirt, Citadel Nuln Oil, Citadel Seraphim Sepia.

Filtered and stained with Windsor and Newton Oils.

Tamiya Weathering Pastels and AK Weathering Pencils.

Finished with Windsor & Newton Matt Varnish.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And finally a family shot with her Arma cousins.

 

 

I really enjoyed this one but might not have had as much fun if it wasn't for the tips given to me by @Troy Smith and @Dandie Dinmont .

A massive shout out to both of them with my grateful thanks.

 

Thanks for looking,

 

Cheers,

Alistair

Thanks so much.

It did exactly what I was hoping for and distracted me from the other stuff.

Many Thanks Andy,

It kind of fell together with help to avoid the pitfalls from other folks. 

I got lucky again.
