Another great entry and super progress already, my friend @flypastrush!

John, (@johnb) This is the 1/48th Italeri kit...I picked it up at a localish retailer as it was too inexpensive to pass up at $20. It looked very nice until I went to join-up the main components... then the "Italeriness" of the kit reared it ugly head. Nothing that can't be managed I am hoping 🤔(but all the main seams are going to need some filler and smoothing out.)

Some filling and sanding necessary indeed, my friend @flypastrush.

George - I find a lot of us have a love/hate relationship with Italeri kits 😉
(This Italeri kit was just too inexpensive not to try out.)

John - If you want a top-notch Hurricane (depending on the type you seek) Arma Hobby’s series of 1/48 Hurricane II kits are currently the best so far, with superb, accurate surface detail that includes raised rivets.

Aii - Thanks for following along - I will try and keep you updated
