For a kit that is some 45+ years old and could be had on E-Bay or at a show vendor for about $15.00-$20.00, she cleans up real good (with a bit of work, of course). My "Hurrie" is now painted, decaled, and weathered. Most of what you see here is paint. Roundels, Codes, serial numbers, fin flash, walkways, and gun tape are all painted on using aftermarket & homemade masks. The only decals I used are the wonderful Hurricane data stencils by Aviaeology (highly recommended). I kept the weathering to a minimum as I wanted to show an aircraft that is just showing signs of wear. I have some odds, ends, and fiddlybits to do on this build before I can call it done. Next time you see her, she will be in the headlines.

Outstanding.

Pretty hot. You flogged that old biscuit right sharp. Love that interior. Paint is gorgeous BUT if you take a regular old #2 pencil eraser to those tape lines on the camo you can get rid of those masking tape ridges real quick. Wasn't positioning the big squadron code stencils fun? Did you make those?

Absolutely beautiful, Seamus.

And yes, my oxygen cylinder is turned on...

Glad you are all enjoying the Hurricane. Squadron code stencils are from Montex and were very easy to position.

Greg, the fluid staining was made from Grumbacher Oil Painting Medium #1 and a bit of the appropriately colored oil paint. Everything is secured/sealed with my ever dwindling supply of Floquil flat clear which, when dry, give a realistically satin sheen that looks like painted metal.
