Mark Sherwood AuteurNeil, Rui S thank you for your comments, much appreciated. As you can tell this is an automated response, as I've been to the T'Club and imbibed a few Pints 'o' Bitter 😜🥴😜😅 No really (Cheez sounds like I'm three sheets to the Wind) if I can find a good figure and Dug' then that will be included. Und again thank you both. 👍🥸👍

NeulingCamouflage paintwork is very appealing, weathering as well. Interesting pilot story. 👍

Ludvík KružíkVery nice Hurricane model! Perfectly handled paintwork including weathering and wear. 👍 👍 👍
And as a Czech I was very pleased with the choice of markings on your model. 😉

Mark Sherwood AuteurThank you Ludvik, everyone knows the Polish contribution and I take nothing away from that contribution. Therefore I am highlighting the participation of other European Pilots, Commonwealth and American pilots who flew in the RAF either in or both BoF, BoB and beyond. Again thank you for your comments. 🤘🥸🤟

Never a ProGotta scratch build a dog, man. Other than that, great Hurricane you got there.

DoubtingmangoExcellent work Mark! My own hurri pales by comparison. Got to say I want to see the dog too
1 29 March, 22:39
Mark Sherwood AuteurHans, Gorby pointed me in the direction of a Dug' could be a Dio' in offing 🙄 Never a Pro, why scratch build when you've got the internet Hem, Hem! Thanks for the compliment on the Hurricane 👍 Doubtingmango, phew! Nah mate your builds are way better than mine. But the Dug' seems to be popular, maybe! Happy Modelling All. 🤘🥸🤟

Duncan BlackThat's a great looking Hurricane. How does the kit compare to its rivals?
1 22 September, 08:29
Mark Sherwood AuteurTo be honest Duncan I can only compare it to Airfix's Hurri' as it's Hasegawa I found it better than the Airfix kit. I did start the Hobby Boss kit but due to me losing parts it's not finished so I cannot compare it to the Hasegawa kit, till I buy a donor. I may add the dog Mikolaj. Thank you Michael, Hasegawa I think did a 1.72 scale kit, but they are rare as Hen's teeth. 🤟🥸🤘

Michael KohlArma's new tooling is supposed to be fine and waiting in my stash already to commemorate the polish contribution and Schillings orifice. 🙂
1 22 September, 10:49
Mark Sherwood AuteurMichael you're right I forgot about Armas kits. Erm, orifice? Do you mean sacrifice?🤔🤘🥸🤟🧐
22 September, 14:19
Michael KohlNo, it is indeed 'orifice' - with pun intended, I suppose 🙂

Mark Sherwood AuteurThank you Guido and for the like too. 👍 And after all this time, comment's, likes and looking at the title of this album, this senile owd' twerp has realised it's the Hobby 2000 re- boxing of the Hasegawa kit! That he built, the Doyle! 😳🤔🙄🤣🤣🤘🥸🤟
1 24 September, 17:03
GuidoI had indeed wondered.
I have the recent HB Mk.1 in the starting blocks and there are, you guessed it, differences between the that one and yours. 😆
1 24 September, 19:05
Mark Sherwood AuteurYes, I started that kit. Either I lost a part or was not included in the kit. I believe in the former considering my current state of mind 🙄 which I mentioned to Duncan in a previous comment. So the canopy hood has been used on my Italeri Hurri' as the carpet monster ate that whilst cleaning it. Or I've misplaced it and will find it five years later in my dressing gown pocket. 🤣🤟🥸🤘🤣
