Nice one John, a little desert Rat. Cheers Dennis

Looks great, I built one of those last year and really enjoyed it. Cheers Dennis

Nice one John, armour used to be a favourite of mine so I can appreciate the work you are putting into it. Cheers Dennis

Now that is a real beauty of a build, one of my all time favourite bikes, what an incredible machine, and what a noise, and in the hands of my favourite racer Mike Hailwood a real winner. I was lucky enough to see Mike race in the IOM on the Ducati. Cheers Dennis

That looks to be have been a great show, some fantastic modelling on display. Thank you for taking the time to post them. Cheers Dennis

Having recently built the PCM Fabric wing Hurricane I can thoroughly recommend the Wingleader Photo Archive Number 3, Hawker Hurricane Mk.I in RAF service NW Europe 1935 to the Battle of Britain. It's probably the only reference that you will need for early Hurricanes. Cheers Dennis

Nice one Cheers Dennis

Great news, with the new Revell Sea Hurricane this will be a must have for me in 2025, a metal winged Mk.I to go with my PCM fabric wing Mk.I. Cheers Dennis

Now that is really sad, hope you can rebuild it. Cheers Dennis

Sad news, Harv was an essential part of this site for me from the very begining. RIP Dennis

The Sea Hurricane version of this kit should be out this year, https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235151512-new-revell-132-sea-hurricane-mkiic/ Cheers Dennis

Nice to hear your positive experience of using them Martin, I have a C.202 to build in the near future so will try them out on it. Cheers Dennis

As I am a 100% enamel user the closing of Sovereign Colourcoats made me think about checking out other sources of paint, I know that Colourcoats are being resurected but I thought that I would investigate another make that I heard about on another forum. So like Martin (see above) I ordered some paint sets from ARCUS in Ukraine and they duly arrived today, so on my next Italian build I will give them a try. Cheers Dennis

A very nice to build kit, enjoy. Cheers Dennis

Nice build of a pretty challenging kit, I built the same kit not so long ago on a run of 4 PCM kits, they are not easy builds but can turn out looking good. Cheers Dennis

That looks great hope mine turns out as nice but it won't have the same markings Cheers Dennis

Now they look great, with the failure of Sovereign Colourcoats I was scrambling to increase my stocks of MM, Humbrol and Xtracolor, just in case. Ok so Sovereign have been resurected but it's nice to know that there are other enamel ranges out there. Cheer Dennis

Used but not abused, nice work. Cheers Dennis

Beautiful build, very reasuring as I have the Seafang and Spiteful in the stash. Cheers Dennis

That's probably neater that the real in theatre applied paintwork, nice one. Cheers Dennis

Here's a Britmodeller thread on the subject, there's more like this out there as well. https://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235119780-spitfire-mk-vb-over-malta—request-for-paint-help/ Cheers Dennis

I definately admire your perseverence, that looks great, much better than a decal. Cheers Dennis

Nice work, looks just the job. Cheers Dennis

Thank you, it's amazing that I managed to finish it but as usual I learned things from the the experience and am very pleased with the result. Cheers Dennis

Thank you kindly Hubert, it is one that I am very happy with now, but if I want another C200 I will wait for the new Italeri kit. Cheers Dennis
