Got a smokin' deal on Trumpeter's Mk V on floats recently. As most of you know, the office and the engine are rubbish. Overall shape compares well against my Airfix Mk 1A so there is that. Not too sure about the floats though; they seem soo shallow in the keel but that may be accurate. Supermarine had their own ideas about float design. Not sure about aftermarket details but I'm sure what's out there can be adapted. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Getting tired of doing cars!

Greetings all Just picked up an early production run Airfix Hurricane for the princely sum of $35USD. Refer to my title considering my recent Spitfire find..... Down side is that the vinyl tires were resting on the lower wing. Epoxy putty will be needed to fix that, but it's doable. I received one as a gift when I was a kid, but it never got built, and I sold it on years later when I found it stashed away. I looked around the box with a fishy eye, and I'd forgotten just how well done this kit is. Unfortunately my few remaining kits will have to wait as I'm relocating. It's going to look great parked next to my Spitfire when the time comes though. Really looking forward to it.
