    Richards Hurricane Airfix 1/72 GB build

    Hi, I was given this kit of the MkI but was commissioned to paint it up following a magazine cover and that plane was a MkIIc with hispano cannons and a tropical chin air scoop. So I thought I'd do a little modification even if it isn't that accurate because I couldn't leave it at that. First...

    Richards Hurricane Airfix 1/72 GB build

    Hi, I hope I'm not too late as I had to finish my competition diorama before continuing this commissioned build. Good thing there was no deadline attached to it so I could fit it in this schedule. At first I didn't bother taking shots of the sprue as Tony had the same build but on reading the...

    Thanks Doug, Paul, Stefan, Andreas, Andrea, Jim, Tim, Steve, Neil, Tony, Andy and John. Well, Tony let's say I was up against some stiff judges as I was a contender for the BOS table I was told and we'll leave it at that. John, it barely got in with the medals until one of the judges...

    Thanks Lee, will do. Paul, the GI shared a portion of his bread thinking he wouldn't be bothered but these French pigeons are civilised so they were quite orderly. Today was spent composing the flock... The pigeons haven't eaten their laxatives yet but are already like women at a sale. Still...

    Thank you Andreas. I'd like to think so and a big ette as well. It's nice to have an outside comment and thank your good wife for me. Thanks Greg, the pigeons are giving me a headache because they will cover most of the stuff I've painted. Anyway, here are some angles of my build minus...

    Thanks Graeme, still adding bits by bit layering upon layering of paint. As it is this is how the base stands now... Will tone down the moss and later paint over with highlights of the base color. The rubble is still in zenithal effect and yet to be painted. Meanwhile I worked on the lamp...

    Thanks Jim, Ian and Tony, yes it's the little stuff that gets the attention when doing vignettes. Pigeons would be fun arranging and both the gear and rubble will be individually painted soon. At the moment I have fitted the hedge... The hedge was done overgrown due to years of neglect at the...

    Thanks Scottie and Neil, It was Wesak holiday today celebrated by Buddhist. But because SWMBO was home little was done at the bench. I still managed this... Just to show there is a war going on I placed rubble in the corner spilling from out of the vignette perimeter into the scene. Probably a...

    Nope, they'll be seen usually in a mob frenzy like women at a sale at the foot of his feet. He probably spread bread crumbs before dozing off. Slowly layers are painted in in this group... Meanwhile while resting my eyes I got my signature base stand done and out of the way. Just need to blend...
