A former colleague of mine was a Hurribomber pilot of 113 Squadron flying these in Burma. The pics I saw of his aircraft had very well defined jet black exhaust flumes curving along the fuselage influenced by the airflow over the wing root. All their aircraft were seriously underpowered clapped-out former Battle of Britain Hurries worked extremely hard in high temperature and humidity. Possibly the reason for the heavy exhaust staining.

G'day Greg, I really enjoyed watching your build. I learned a couple of tricks as well. I'd not seen the graphite powder trick before and it works a treat; a real spark of authenticity, just like our old 'instructional' engine when I was at school, '300 years' ago. 😉 Depending on my mood at the time of a larger scale build, I'll do all the interior work just because I know it's in there and, besides, it's good practice for when you can see the fine detail. Also, I feel the end look of an 'historical' aircraft or armour can be so subjective. You could model an aircraft that's had only test flights and, say, 4 sorties. That would look almost like it rolled out of the factory. Then there's the type of theatre it served in. You could have gone with an Aussie Hurricane as my research tells me that way out in the bush, or on some hastily built strip in a jungle setting, the fitters and surface finishers were usually one in the same bloke. Their priorities were to keep the aircraft flying and make them safe for the pilots. No such thing as keeping them fit for an O.C.'s inspection; all that went out the window. If they were short on the right paint, they would improvise but only on the areas important for aircraft identification. In the Pacific we got rid of the red dot on our roundels after a few tragic 'friendly fire' incidents from USAAF aircraft and anti-aircraft gunners. Younger US pilots would shoot at anything that had red on it in any form of roundel. No use sending out a 'memo'. What I'm driving at is that when I'm doing our Aussie aircraft, I try not to stick to a pattern because our War Memorial museum has hundreds of photographs of all our aircraft and they were a pretty rough and ready lot to look at. I always have a laugh when I see razor sharp 'invasion' stripes on models. I've got dozens of pics of black and white stripes being applied by flight line ground crew using 6-inch brushes and huge cans of paint. No masking of any kind was ever used, outside of the factory. Like you showing your errors, (which is a good thing), during the war a fitter or someone would mess up which would require an on the spot modification. Sure, they had the manuals and a routine for the paperwork, but in the heat of battle, or the fog of war, whatever, not everything was done by the book. If spares didn't show up, they'd rebuild with a homemade mod of some kind. I'm not complaining, but the fact is that the bulk of aircraft that came to Australia from Britain were, before they left, already well used. That was OK as we were desperate for any aircraft we could get. We even took to making our own, somewhat disappointing, fighter; the Boomerang, however, it later became an excellent ground support aircraft; it was never going to be a true air to air interceptor. We even put guns on our homemade Wirraway trainer; that was desperation. Anyway, Greg, I really liked the way you approached this big build; I prefer larger scales as I can see and feel the work a lot better these days. When I’m not modelling, I’m a military historian. I enjoyed my brief time in the RAAF and I became fascinated with the older aircraft that we were still flying, that had seen duty in Korea and were just being retired. There were even a very few of the ‘old hands’ who were still sporting WW2 ribbons on their tunics. I used to ‘pump’ them for war stories and that’s what got me into history. It really improved my view of modelling too, which I’d been playing around with since I was a lad of 9 or so. I’m glad I subscribed and I’m enjoying your work, which isn’t work at all, is it? Cheers, and all the best for 2022. B.H.

But Weathering is Subjective and Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder.... The paint and painted markings, utilizing as much of the kit Out of the Box yet adding detail and CORRECTING areas of the model that has Fit issues and you taking the time to show us what You did to correct them Thank You!!!

The Airfix kit is slightly better, in my humble opinion. But you need to get a early release of this kit. From what I remember came moulded in light blue plastic, better kit from fresher moulds. But they can command high prices, remembering that the decals will be useless. The Trumpeter kit is very good, minus engine detail. To me, it's about getting the Hurricane kit for a good price. Hope this helps.

Nice as always! One small point on painting the doghouse & wooden parts to show possible wear. All these parts were covered in red doped linen, the same as all other fabric covered parts, so the colour under the camo paint is pretty similar to red lead. The same holds true for most fabric coverings, eg the wings and controls on a Chipmunk.

Here is a nice tip for you. On the areas of the wings where you have the foot grips try using some paint of your color choice and add baking soda. It puts the right amount of roughness to give that non-skid surface they used on these and because the soda is so fine grained it hold good scale look at just about any size model.

Bit late but I've only just found this video. In 1941, the British Government presented a Hawker Hurricane Mk I fitted with tropical equipment to Australia. The RAAF serial A60-1 was allocated, but the Hurricane retained its RAF number, V7476. The aircraft was erected at No 1 Aircraft Depot in August 1941, and joined Central Flying School (CFS) on 6 September 1941, where it was used for familiarisation flights and war-loan demonstrations. In mid-1942, the Hurricane was transferred to No 2 Communication Flight and, while at Laverton, it was used for testing an anti-"G" suit designed by Professor Cotton, of Melbourne University. Between 1943 and 1946, the Hurricane operated mainly with No 1 Communication Unit and Central Flying School, except for a month with No 2 Operational Training Unit. In 1946, the Hurricane, now in silver finish, was transferred to Point Cook, where it remained in a disposal park until sold on 27 January 1951 It also had a colour scheme of Foliage Green and Sky Blue (not 100% sure of the underside colour) but it definitely had a bare Aluminium and Silver Dope colour scheme with War Time Roundels

@memkiii2 жыл бұрын
Just about everything in the Mediterranean & African theatre had either Azure blue or Light Mediterranean Blue undersides. Before the scheme was applied in the factory, it would have been done at a unit level, so you can expect variations. This does look oversaturated, but that could be the video or the monitor it is being viewed on. The green of the cutting mat looks odd compared to the one I have in front of me for example. As for the rivets. The pristine gloss painted things you tend to see in private collections, are spotless. A faded, worn, matt painted aircraft in a combat theatre tends to collect oil and dirt, and not be cleaned an awful lot. The Hurricane also has some pretty hefty rivets.

Molto bello. Un po' noiosa la sequenza dellinvecchiamento. Io non avrei la tua pazienza. L'unica è cosa che correggerei sono le ruote che non mostrano il peso dell'aereo. Grazie per la lezione e complimenti per la tua maestria.
