WOW! Those lights look excellent!
Got the fuselage together and wings on now, its starting to look like a hurricane . Strangely Airfix dont supply a gunsight of any kind , so an early reflector gunsight ( round lens ) will have to be scratched and fitted before I get the windscreen on . Ive also been squinting through the magnifying lamp and got the figures started . Theyve had a basic first coat of colour , lots more tiny details to paint and shading washes etc to come . 
Good work on the lights Tony. The general fit looks half decent as well.
Lovely work - those pilots look excellent!
Coming along very nicely indeed Tony.
Great updates Tony the figures look nice and tidy.
The figures are now done after a bit more detail painting , washing and drybrushing .
I scratched a gunsight and attached it then masked up the windscreen and fitted that. After masking the cockpit opening the airframe got a coat of Halfords grey primer. Next up some colour .

Wow, that was an enjoyable catch up. Some cracking work going on, love the figures, they will really add something to the finished product.
Cheers doug , they are so beautifully sculpted that it even makes my figure painting look ok ! Mind you looking at the photos now I think the chap with the dog might have to have a bit of a touch up, hes got a mucky face !
Tony office and figs look great.
Excellent progress Tony. Love the way you've made the lights. The figures look super especially at 1/72.
Got the paint on this now - hataka acrylics - and its now had a coat of johnsons Klear ready for the decals . Ive also been cleaning up wing commander Scruffys face . 
Looking very good Tony, it’s coming along very nicely indeed.
Tony very nice and clean paint job on the Camo
Decals on now and drying . Tomorrow maybe it will get a matt coat to seal everything in , then its just final bits like aerial / aerial wire/ pitot/ canopy and some very light weathering .
Im thinking about a round base about 8/10 inches in diameter , got to source it yet though.

that looks good bring on the base.
Got the Hurricane finished now and tye figures are all done so Ive just got the base to sort. I sourced a round piece of MDF ( well I didnt , my son the joiner did -thanks Sam !) which has been profiled on the edge and painted black . Ive now got to stick on some grass . I got a roll of grass effect from the Hinckley show as well as a bag of flock . I’m going to stick on the paper backed grass and then add some of the flock to give it some variation . I’ll probably spray a few random green/ brown areas with the airbrush too .
