As you know Ian, me and things with wings do not get along=I just cannot build em, however, I do like looking at them when others are building and I have to say...she looks a cracker mate.

Superb detailing and workmanship, for a old kit you have certainly breathed life into her-she looks amazing.

This looks great! I'm particularly impressed with what you've done on those panel lines, the effect is brilliant.

Ian,
That Sir is looking very nice indeed.

 

[Guest]

Oooh nice Ian.

 

[papa 695]

Thanks guys, there’s not much more I can do to this build wise. I’m still waiting on the undercarriage struts to arrive from Airfix. Still some weathering and chipping to keep me busy though.

Looking good, Ian. :thumb2:
Careful where you chip as quite a lot of areas on the Hurri were built the old way with stretched fabric. Just saw a restoration video on it.

Cheers,
Richard

This is looking quite special. Great paintwork. Come along Mr Airfix, give Ian his legs please, we want to see this on finished. Although, is there a stand included for 'flying' mode ?

 

[papa 695]

Just received an Email from Airfix, saying that the part was posted Yesterday. So I may just get this finished in time.
