    1st PLACE BEGINNER: Hawker Hurricane MkIID RAF Egypt 1942 Group Build****

    1:48 Hobbycraft Hawker Hurricane MkIID RAF Egypt 1942 Group Build

    Username: Heinz
    First name: Alex
    Category: 3
    Scale: 1:48
    Manufacturer: Hobbycraft
    Model Type: Hawker Hurricane MkII D
    Details: BP 188, RAF No.6 Squadron, Egypt 1942
    Decals: Kit provided - JV-Z

    Its all done my fist GB finisher! Im pretty happy with the Hurri though as everyone can see I can make huge improvement again in the future. Also one of the very few 1/48th scale crates I've done and it was a joy to work in a bigger scale I must admit. I was worried that brush painting would show up badly in a bigger scale but luckily the heavy weathering has disguised it a bit.

    Thanks for the comments to all concerned
    Cheers.

    First 6 are the required angles if there is any problems let me know?
