delta7 Posted April 16, 2012 Share Posted April 16, 2012 Hawker Sea Fury 1/48 Hobbycraft This was a kit I picked up on e-bay and included a coopers detail set , airwaves undercarraige set and airwaves cockpit set, and two vac canopies of which more later I used the best of these along with aeromaster decals ( which were superb and supplied the stencils) I have enough left over to detail a second kit if I decide to build another,the cuban marking look really nice. The kit is fairly basic and only let down by the thick one piece cockpit canopy , however I ruined 2 vac canopies trying to get an open pit and have decided I really dont like working with these so I used the kits piece. The wheel well is pretty basic so I added some wires and plastic to busy it up My only problem was when spraying the invasion stripes my mask slipped and I ended up covering the kit with white so had to strip it back and start again.- lesson learnt , dont skimp on masking tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum Painless Posted April 16, 2012 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted April 16, 2012 ~S~ Dave, What a beautiful airplane that is ! Nice job on the customising. Sounds like the canopy was a bitch but the standard one doesn't look too bad ay ? I know what you mean about masking, one small gap can cause you a world of work to put right! Nice pics M8. Cheers, Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
