    Italieri 1/48 Hawker Hurricane MK1. 303 squadron (Polish) Flg Off W Urbanoviocz , RAF northolt 1940

    This was a disappointment ! The kit is fine certainly not the worst I've built but the panel lines are very shallow so it was difficult to show any detail AB might be different but brush painters would struggle IMO

    Still I've done ok with it considering my skill level

    Nothing wrong with Alan, clean tidy build. I like it and think the paint job and weathering look great.

        Yes, a great build-the build is neat straight, the camo, despite the issues looks good and you stuck with it and tried to salvage the model-which worked.

            Thanks again mate I was thinking I'd gone a little over the top with the smoke burn to cover the worst bits , tbh mate I couldn't just leave this or crash it the hurricane is my favourite WWII aircraft so I was determined knock her into at least an ok build

                    I have still to do my pilot yet.

                    He will look better when painted.

                      There wasn't a pilot with this kit but I have some RAF personel and this was one from that I didn't think I'd get the chance to use him but it looks like I've found him a home

                        It was definitely worth persevering with Alan! Its turned out well & would be one that I'd enjoy having on my shelf.

                        Cheers

                          Alan, you certainly pulled this out of the fire, beat it into shape and produced a great looking aircraft.

                          Well done.

                              Thanks very much for the very kind words I still can't see what your all seeing but it's very much appreciated

                              I think because a built that 109 in a day I was expecting this one to be better if I took my time I produce something better , don't get me wrong I like it it's just not what I envisioned

                              Thanks again folks
