$19 and OD's Hurricane buddy build

Thanks Bob!

Fleshing out the leading edge landing lights. Airfix has empty notches for them, but as they are so prominent a feature on the wing, I wanted to do a little something to spruce them up.

Thanks James.

I'm almost caught up with Gary now. I'll be heading for the paint shop tomorrow.

I did relocate the pilot's boarding stirrup from the incorrect location Airfix has for it. On the centerline! go figure that one out. It's now where it's supposed to be at the wing trailing edge fillet.

I'll get more up as things progress.
 
Not the obligatory paint drying photo! The paint IS dry! :gogo ModelMaster Sky.

And of course the flat black on the prop and spinner. Top colors soon.
 
Well, wonders will never cease... I finally finished this one :dance It fought me right to the end but the issues were all my doing. Anyway I'm glad it now is in the display case. I really need to get a better set up for photography indoors. Normally this time of year I could take it outside but it was cold and rainy today, any way here she be...
