I'm interested in building Hasegawa's 48scale hurricane IIC in a desert scheme. Unbelievably I cant find decals for such an a/c so I'll have to make some from spares. I'm not an RAF expert so I'll ask you guys what color and size were squadron & A/C code letters. Any thing on serials? I think they were black. I've seen varying pictures on the net so any help or refrences would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

Serial numbers eight inch high in Night (black). AMO state codes should be 48 inch high. Too large so size varies according to whatever someone thought suitable. In the desert colour also varied. Medium Sea Grey was used, also white but red or red with white outline can also be found.

Combat Colours No 2. The Hawker Hurricane 1939 to 1945 in RAF, Commonwealth and FAA Service, H C Bridgewater, Guidline Publications.

On Target Profile 12 The Hawker Hurricane in RAF, Commonwealth Service, The Aviation Workshop Publications.

Both these have suitable schemes and list the colours and sizes of the identification markings. The Aviation Bookshop might have decals.

Thank you. I looked at the aviation bookshop but couldn't find any decals there. maybe it's me. I think I'll go with the med sea grey and mask them. I'll use easy to make straight letters like XHLNT . I 'still can't believe that the subject is so unpopular as not to have decals available. It's such a classic a/c and marking combo.
Cheers

Ron try these from Model Alliance (The Aviation Workshop) Premier range.

They also have another set, part 1 part no.MA147 and part 3 part no.MA149

Hope that's of help

My mistake. I meant Aviation Workshop not Bookshop.

Interesting and slightly unusual scheme here:

Or you could have masks made for the scheme that you like:

thanks All!
I looked at those Model alliance sheets and it's hard to tell what the IIC markings look like because there not shown on the artwork. I sent them a message about that because they're kind of expensive for me to get w/o seeing the actual markings included. I'm a little vanilla when it comes to markings so the slovic one isn't my taste. I'll probably make my own mask. I'm not going nuts on this thing but would have liked accurate markings. I just like the overall look and was interested in an enjoyable and different (to me) build to slide back into the hobby. Every time I get carried away it takes the fun out of it and then i wonder why I loose intrest. Beside often the ones I do casually look better.
