Rabbit Leader Posted September 29 Posted September 29 Love that photo.... the paint details and decals really bring out the best in these kits. You've done well with these Gerard. Cheers.. Dave 1

Mr T Posted September 29 Posted September 29 Very nice build, as I am currently building the Sea Hurricane, I understand the issues. Although my wing fuselage join was very good with only minimal fettling drilling out location holes also helps a lot. 1

You’re right in that the fit is not perfect a little bit of fettling sees it right.
Wings unlevel Posted October 8 Author Posted October 8 And it’s done! Bit rough and ready, I fully concede. But I guess so was the real thing! And as I’ve remarked previously, this was a great build to practice rusty skills on and try new techniques ahead of my 1/48, which itself is all but done now too. I’ll get some gallery pics tomorrow, but for now thanks for all the likes and encouraging comments. I’m having a lot of fun with this GB! 10 6

I was originally drawn to this boxing by its two RAAF marking schemes, but yes the desert Malta scheme really drew me in. 1
