Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I enjoyed it very much. I've recently become disabled and I'm looking for something to help pass the time.
@@wbpsmodels3452 Thank you. Unfortunately my disability is degenerative. It's my back from millwright and iron working for 38 years. I just wore out too soon.
A good effort, very good indeed: Perhaps in the future try to avoid such a bright silver for your chipping, check out some YT vids on 'sponge chipping' too - it's easy to apply and far more realistic in this scale. Your construction is fine, maybe pay a wee bit more attention to the leading-edges of the wings next time, eh ? All the best from New Zealand.
Thank you... I def need improvement...It had been nearly 30 years since I was modelling and this was my 4th build.. It comes back to me slowly (and thanks to YT, there's lot to learn more)... Greetings from Greece!
You have done avery nice job on the Hurricane. I like it a lot. That is some really excellent work you have shown. But there are a couple of small caveats for you to try with the next Fleet Air Arm plane. (and for another Hurricane I variant.) First up: Every photo I have seen of a Hurricane 1 that shows the Gun cover panels off, shows them either on the ground behind the wing or flat on the wing, separate from the bays, not hinged as you show them. I understand why you may have chosen this, but it does not reflect the "real" practice. Second - The Fleet Air Arm Upper-surface Green colour was officially known as "Dark Slate Grey", a dark greenish grey about the same tone as RAF Dark Green or Luftwaffe RLM 74 Grau Grun. (Note: Tone is not the same as not Hue). I think lightening Humbrol Slate Grey May not have been the correct choice - The contrast with the grey tone is too pronounced - it should have been darkened slightly, or Humbrol do actually do a Dark Slate Grey in their range which is very close. (Fleet Air Arm colours were quite dark - Look at the box art of this kit!) What you have depicted is closer to "Light Slate Grey", which was a "shadow-shade" colour most often used on biplanes and was visually close to the German Luftwaffe primer colour of RLM02. Third and last: While US Gunship grey is "close", the WW2 and Modern iterations of "Extra Dark Sea Grey" have a distinct dark Blue tint to the hue. Gunship grey does not - it is a true grey, not a Dark grey-blue. AS I said, this is for your future builds, and is intended to give youo the information to make them even better, not as a nitpick on this very nice build you have shared.
wonderfulllll!!!!...i have a question if you have time to answer me...after thar you apply the tamiya black for liner, is difficult to remove it??...i never used it end i am sure that the first time i will do a great disaster!!...olways sorry for my bad english, greatings Roberto from Venezia
Ciao Roberto! :) It's not hard to remove, as long as you have applied a glossy varnish coat before.. You can remove it with a q-tip damp with white spirit.. or -even better- with a damp brush.
I have watched this video twice and never stayed awake to see the finished model. Maybe you could find some military music that would be more appropriate for building combat aircraft. Now if you where building a sailing ship......... however l should not try watching these vid builds at 11:30 pm.

Thank you for your kind words. I wish you the best and a speedy recovery - if possible.

I'm sorry to hear that. Maybe it's time you started doing some model-building! ;)
Fantastic work and it shows...what a great build on this beautiful airplane...absolutely stunning...Well Done!
Thank you Phil :)
Superb work, fantastic job, and nice video, thanks 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much! :)

Nice build and a really well produced video.
Thank you very much! :)
Top build and an easy to watch video 5*
Thank you very much Chris :)

Noted! Thanks Brett. Truth is I chose this to avoid the flat on the wing look, albeit it was harder to glue... I'll keep it mind for next time! :)
Super!
THank you ! :)
Why are both ailerons down?
Good job. Buy the antenna wire is awful.....
Yeah, I know.. I tried to use thin ethernet wire... doesn't work...

I cannot use any kind of music I want, Edward. it has to be public domain. Nevertheless, thank you for watching it... even half asleep ;)
@@wbpsmodels3452 l will try again as l like Sea Hurricanes and working on a couple of 1/72 ,Airfix and Arma Sea Canes.
