G'day guys
Well to accompany my 1/72 Spitfire Mk.1 and RAF ground crew, i thought i'd do a 1/72 Hawker Hurricane Mk.1.
When both birds are finished i will make a small Battle of Britain diorama.
So here she is so far.
The cockpit had no detail, im talking NONE, not even a bloody joystick.
So out came the Evergreen plastic stock, treched Sprue, and brass wire once again.
The parts painted white are the scratchbuilt bits.



The MG bays were bloody tricky, but i think i did them ok.
Let me know what ya think.
Cheers!

looks like you are off to a great start Dave, I really like your scratch building skills in the cockpit.
