ArmaHobby/Eduard 1/72 Hurricane

[Mo_]

While waiting for the mustang build in April, I'm working on the ArmaHobby 1/72 Hurricane. Since the mustang I plan on building is the 1/72 Armahobby P51b, I wanted to see how the Armahobby kits build. Not bad. Fit is good.

Just realized the lighting sucks. Freaking phone camera.

@Mo_ , are you building an Eduard re-box? I ask since the kit is completely Arma Hobby's production so am not sure why Eduard is getting top billing.

I have this kit:


When reviewing the contents, click photo, and chatting with Wojtek, no mention of Eduard at all.

This is the kit. Eduard just reboxed the plastic.

Finished. Nice little kit.

Very clean build Mo, love the panel accents.

Nice build Mo. propeller looks a bit off, is that just the photo angle?

It's just stuck on there...prolly shifted down as I was moving it around for pics

Mo, brilliant work! I also love the panel lines. How did you get them so sharp and clean in this scale?

They are that sharp on the kit, but he did an excellent job accentuating that:

A very tidy, nice Hurricane indeed, sir!

Nice paint job

Thanks guys, I really didn't do anything different other than polish in between all coats of paint and gloss. I wanted to try that in this scale. It was time consuming enough in 1/72! Maybe that had something to do with it. All I used was an old wash I have from MIG.

Thank you Saul! Even with such crisp panel lines; I never seem to get mine looking that sharp.

Thank you Mo. I'll have to see what I have that I can use. I believe I have some Tamiya panel liner somewhere....
