I admit, I fell into a Black Friday thing and ordered a few kits from Arma hobby with considerable discount so I am entering another Hurricane.

351sq RAF was the second of two Yugoslav RAF squadrons established in 1944, the other being 352sq. 352 was equipped with Harvards and Hurricanes Mk.IIc at Benghazi, Libya where they trained for future ops. Upon receiving Spitfires Mk.V, Hurricanes were relegated to its sister squadron 351, which remained to be the ground attack squadron until the end of WW2. During the work up training for the future combat operations over Yugoslavia, Mk.IIc's were replaced by Mk.IVs, which the squadron used until the end of war.

I'll be building one of the early IIcs from Benghazi in standard RAF desert camouflage. Catch was, that Tito negotiated the use of red stars over the standard RAF markings - the only such exception in standard markings known to me.

Great choice, Sebastijan (@inflames). I have several different versions of these Hurricanes from Arma Hobby. Looking forward to the build.

Good one Sebastijan, nice markings.

Missed the entry of this beautiful kit, Sebastijan @inflames
Looking forward to it.

Camo looks awesome, my friend @inflames!

I am back!
Thank you guys! @johnb I do most of my feathered edge camouflages freehand and this one was no exception. And I agree, Luxembourg is really really nice. Unfortunately with courses running until 5pm and short winter days, I don't get to see much of it, even if I have spent 4 weeks total there 🙂

Back to the model. Decals were applied and they give quite a character to this desert scheme! Some silvering appeared around the serial code, but I think I'll manage to deal with it with weathering process. Not bad for 20 odd year old decals from LiftHere!

Decals do indeed look pretty good after all those years, Sebastijan @inflames

Thank you, guys!
