1/32 HAWKER HURRICANE

I'm now working on the 1/32 model of the Hawker Hurricane Mk11b by Fly.  This is what I would call a limited run kit in that there are really now positioning pins for any parts and the mold gates are large and take some work to clean up.  It comes with resin and photo etch parts as well and instrument panel details on film. The smaller parts are soft on detail and clunky.  There are no part numbers on the trees – you have to refer to the instructions and I have found errors there.  There are no specific color shade callouts at all.  You will need to do your own research. This is by no means a Tamiya kit, but I think in the end it will build into a decent looking Hurricane.
