    Hawker Hurricane MkIIb, RHAF 335 Sqdn, 1942, Hobbycraft 1/48

    I was told that this particular aircraft, had the colour you said, but it had an accident before it was given to 335 Squadron. But at those days, when a plane could fly again after a minor accident, they didn't always paint it with the right colours. It is said that BD930 would have been painted...

    Hawker Hurricane MkIIb, RHAF 335 Sqdn, 1942, Hobbycraft 1/48

    Thanks guys! I painted the Dark Earth, but there are some minor mistakes to correct, so I will post a photo when I'm finished correcting. But I made a major mistake with the canopy (as always :oops:) and I had to use a toothpick to remove some paint from it... The kit is nice for its price.

    Greek Hurricane Mk.Ib in Egypt - 1/48

    Good morning! I have a Greek book about Hellenic Air Force. It is entitled: Greek Airplanes from 1912 until today. The book was published in 1992, so the types of the planes are until '92. On one of the pages it says about Hurricanes. It states that Mk.I were first delivered to 335 Sqdn with...

    Greek Hurricane Mk.Ib in Egypt - 1/48

    Hello everybody! I am a rookie here. I would like you to tell me if the Italeri's new 1/48 Hurricane Mk.I is appropriate for a Greek Hurricane Mk.Ib. I have found decals for an aircraft with Greek markings in Egypt but I don't know which kit to buy. Is Italeri's ok for what I want...
