Amazing level of detail, complemented by great painting

Don't know what I've done to upset this kit but it's fighting me every way.
Not a lot seams to be fitting, hence a lot of filling sanding etc

It probably isn't you mate, I had no end of problems with it.
Your's is look good so far.

Cheers 'gorbygould' it's always nice to hear others have had similar issue, does restore a little faith in ones- self

Getting in with the fun part the paint

Right it's me , must be as decals normally work great but having issue with the roundels, they go fine for 90% but some of the edges curl bunch leaving ridges once dry. Can't smooth out when wet as v v thin with the micro sol. Gues I know where chipping going to be, just hope the side roundels work better as can't chip canvas 🙂

Yep confirmed it's me messing the decals up. In the past I've got away flooding decals with micro sol but not this time as can be seen on wing. Use a little on the sides and decals worked fine. You live n learn

G'day SB, That's an outstanding build and diorama. If it fought you; then it's plain to see you fought back just as hard. A tremendous outcome. I've just received the 'latest' Airfix Hurricane Mk 1. I hope it's not from a tooling that's been churning them out since the 80s... Cheers, to your hard work! raafbloke

Excellent job. It looks like you won in the end. It certainly turned out better than mine.
