***DONE: Hurricane Mk IIC of No. 351 (Yugoslav) Sqn RAF, Lybia 1944 Group Build

With all here.Looking reallu great Igor.:D
 
Two more photos... model is now more less prepared to receive clear varnish before applying decals. I will use Humbrol Satin Cote for this purpose but I have one question... Should I apply the varnish on the clear parts (conopy) or not. I've never done it before and my fear is that conopy might become "blurred" or "foggy" (you know what I mean) if I apply varnish on it. Any suggestions? Note that on the photos posted conopy is not yet glued on the model.

Good one Igor, perfect subtle weathering
:hotsun: :hotsun:
 
Undoubtedly don't cover the cockpit conopy with the varnish. You are right it get the foggy texture.That's way the cockpit conopy should have been masked with a masking tape for instance.
 
Looking real good Igor!
 
Thanks Wojtek and Terry for your advice regarding the clear coat. That was my opinion too but I thought I'll rather ask to be sure. Also thanks to everyone on your comments.
 
Looking good Igor. :)

Glad I read the comments about the clear coat! Almost forgot about masking off the underwing lights on the HS 126!
 
Today's update - decals and second clear coat applied. Just a few more finishing touches required and she'll be finished by tomorrow (just in time)...
