Iain 13,415 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Beautiful build! I understand what you mean about this kit - I'm working on one at the moment - so understand how much work you've put in. Love the weathering. BTW - is that the kit propeller? If it is I'll go that route too - I've been mulling on possible replacement - but that looks good... Iain MARU5137, phasephantomphixer and scvrobeson 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

mozart 12,724 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 That’s a really beautiful Hurricane X15, every aspect looks spot on. The painting and weathering is especially effective. I have both the PCM Hurricanes to build, both rag and metal wing and I hope I can make as good a job as you have. Troy Molitor, phasephantomphixer and MARU5137 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MARU5137 15,916 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 OUTSTANDING build.You should be proud of this one. Link to post Share on other sites
Greif8 1,724 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 Superb build! I built the PCM Hurricane for the BoB Group Build as well and completely agree that the kit takes some work to hammer out a finished product. You did a much better job than I did, great work!

alain11 2,530 Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 hi it's always a lesson of weathering you give us , it's a bit a shame you didn't show us the underside , I think , I am sure it's worth it to be seen Alain MARU5137 and phasephantomphixer 2 Link to post Share on other sites
