Hurricane Mk.IIc (Smer/Heller 1/72)
This model is my tribute to the good old times of modeling. This kit is from 70s - originally Heller and now it's produced by Smer with some additions (decals and PE parts). Quality is still good but detail level is totally outdated, so I had to do some work starting from removing raised panel lines, scratch building main wheel bay and cockpit, landing lights and so on - if you're interested you can read a full story here - http://imodeler.com/groups/work-in-progress-aircraft/forum/topic/hurricane-mk-iic-nostalgia-build-smer-172
Thank you for watching and for following WIP thread! Hope you'll enjoy this Hurri.
Great job on my favorite Hurricane-always favored the MkIIc
excellent work, Dmitry. You turned that old bird into a work of art. Not an easy task.
Very nice hurricane!
I concur...very nice work in that (or any) scale - nicely photographed as well.
Like the others have said, a very nice looking Hurricane, definitely worth all the work you put into building it.
Beautiful. Love the Hurricane, this is a beauty. Well done.
Excellent. Well done Dmitry.
Very nice and colourful model! I'll use it as an example for my Revell 1/72 Hurricane!
Nice paint !
some details overscale but NICE!
my children time best kit im build a 5-10.Heller/šmer
P.k
A very nice build Dmitry.
A fine Hurricane.
Well done mate.
Most excellent work! As a fellow 1/72 scale modeler, I love to see such detail put into a subject. And your finish work (paint/shading/weathering) is excellent as well! I'm inspired!
Great job Dmitry , this was my first Hurricane kit way back when it was new . You did a great job with the old girl .
Excellent work, I can't imagine how much work you put into bringing this oldie to life. Thanks for sharing.
Dimity,
What else can I add. This gorgeous m
No you are a master
Outstanding Hurricane, Dimitry. The best Heller Hurri, i have seen so far.
Personally, always preferred Hurricanes to Spitfires (It's a kind of Beatles/Stones thing.), and you've certainly done justice to this blast from the past. Also very good with radio wire that it's actually in scale.
PS you may be starting a new trend: egg cup display stands!
I think the above comments say it all, but that is an impressive build, especially on a small scale.
AWESOME Dimitry. You did an amazing job on this Hurricane!
I like your take on this classic very much! I've had one moulded in black plastic but never got around to build it before it was handed to a friend's son as his first model!

Thank you for your attention to my work! And for your very, very positive comments too!
i've just read throught the work-in-progress section of this plane...awesome work, you could be really proud about it! and you built it from a smer kit...i started hobby with smer and kp kits, i know what a pain sometimes to build something acceptable from these boxes...:)
Beautiful work, this is the best Heller/Smer Hurricane Mk. IIC I’ve seen built. Amazing work.
