Popular Post quang Posted December 29, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) I told you, my resistance is low. A mere week after I received the kit, here are the first pics of my new Hurricane in the making. Following the Revell instructions, I started with the cockpit. It’s a complicated affair as per the original but nonetheless an easy assembly as long as you take care to prepare the parts prior to reaching for the glue. Paints are Gunze , AK and Tamiya lacquers. Stock instrument panel painted with bezel decals added Seat completed. Scratch-built Sutton harness from paper and tin foil Seat installed Harness painted with Vallejo acrylics Gunsight minus reflector glass installed Escape hatch interior Cockpit in situ. Closing the fuselage next. Next time: the wheel wells Thank you for looking and Happy New Year everybody!

Out2gtcha Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Lovely! Good to see a WIP of one of these. From the accuracy posted so far as well as the price point, I hope this is a HUGE success for Revell!

monthebiff Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Lovely job Quang, received my copy on Xmas eve and it's a great looking kit at a very reasonable price. Will be following along with interest. Regards. Andy quang 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quang Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) Thank you @Out2gtcha @monthebiff for your kind words. As for the accuracy, I built the FLY kit when it was released. Remembering the number of things I had to add to detail and ‘accurize’ it, I notice that my earlier effort has been implemented in the Revell kit.

Greif8 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Excellent work on the cockpit Quang, it looks great! Looks like RoG has gotten the manufacturing of this kit up to quality of their Ju88 and He111 kits from what you have shown thus far.
