Airfix 1/24 Hawker Hurricane MK1

Looks fine! If is acrylic and isn't dry yet, take a sponge and "sand", you will have s nice final effect

Unfortunately Polux it's dry , I wonder if a dry brush just to give it some depth and then a very weak rust wash so it discolours the shiny bits

looks good Alan, i like it with the spinner off as well,

I'm sure tamiya do a 1/24 F1 pit crew? They're just mechanic figures in overalls, so they'd probably look ok.

My mistake, it's a rally crew [ATTACH]85433.IPB[/ATTACH]

Cheers Patrick , if they don't work I'll have to buy a Subaru kit

Thanks for that joe now I know I can do what I need to do , it sounds like he faced the same problems as

I did and that's a beauty he's built

Thanks again

Final update for this project

This is a good kit to build not much wrong with it really iff you take into account how old it is , no major fit issues and my biggest problem was the fuselage , it was twisted towards the tail plane and the front dipped butt superglue sorted that out [ATTACH]85519.IPB[/ATTACH]

Andy well done mate this is a beauty and a nice size too, I like how you have left the covers off of the gun bays and engine, this looks really nice.
