tony o Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Hiya Folks, Here is my latest model,......it is the re-released old Revell Hurricane kit converted into a Mk.IIb using the Grey Matter Resin conversion set and the build thread can be found here; http://www.britmodel...finished/page-2 The model represents BD897/ WG-M which was flown by Sqn. Ldr. Billy Drake`s aircraft when he was CO of 128 Sqn. based at Hastings in Sierra Leone, West Africa during 1941-42 and he downed a Vichy French Maryland flying this aircraft. Finished with Aeromaster acrylics (yes I know,..rare,....cheers again Andy!) with Finnish Light Blue representing RAF Sky Blue and the nose art was hand painted onto the model,..see the build thread! I had originally applied the wrong serial however but have now changed it Anyway enough blurb,.....here is the modeL, but it originally had the wrong serial; So the serial was changed from BD776 (WG-F) to the correct BD897 (WF-M); I hope you like it, and here are some pics of the real aircraft; Cheers Tony 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeMaben Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 Considering what you started with, that looks fantastic. I'd like to do Drake's Hurricane someday too. Very nice work Tony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
