Kit used for this build is the Airfix Hurricane in 1/24 scale. A lot of scratch building has gone into this model, especially the entire framework inside the
fuselage, complete with all cables, hydraulics and wireless equipment. Parts of the cockpit have also been rebuilt to make the kit look more accurate, one of these items is the pilot's seat.
The decals used are from
Techmond, while the seat belt harness is laser cut fabric, which gives the aircraft a fantastic finish. Pilot's instruments are by
Superscale. The entire aircraft is painted with Humbrol Enamals, while the framework is painted with
Alclad 2. All washes and weathering products used are by AK Interactive.
