Marvellous work with that Intruder, Mike and the Hurricane is also shaping up to be another one of your masterpieces!

Liking the Sea Hurri a lot. I guess the time for conversion to MRP is coming closer and closer every day for me. They seem to be delivering an close to absolute finish.

So, I got the Airfix 1/48 Sea Hurricane Mk.1b finished up this afternoon...
Weathering was a simple panel line wash with Paynes Grey oil paint thinned with white spirit, the other stains were also artists oils used neat blended with cotton buds and fan brushes. the exhaust stains were just airbrushed on with heavily thinned NATO black, NATO brown and Sky from Tamiya acrylics.
I hope you like it as much as I do

Fantastic work on that Hurricane, Mike! Wow!

Very nice

Yes I do. Very nice looking Hurricane.

Superb Hurricane mate. Love it.

That is superb, Mike, a top drawer build if ever I saw one!

Nicely finished

Excellent work as ever Mike. Love the finish on the Sea Hurricane and MRP too is becoming my favourite paint. I used it on my Gnat and I loved the stuff.

Knockout Sea Hurri!
Beautifully weathered.

Cheers,

David

Thanks guys, pleased it meets with approval

Been working on the Trumpeter 1/72 Su-34 Fullback next.
Putting MRP paints through their paces...

Slight delay in updates here.
This is my first finisher for 2018...
Zoukie Mura 1/48 F-4S Phantom II, straight outta the box save for scratch built seat belts










Number two...
HobbyBoss 1/48 F3H-2 Demon with additional resin seat from Pavla...







and number three this year...
Revell 1/32 P-51D Mustang.
I added pipework to the fuel tanks, drilled out and replaced the guns in the wings and also added a set of fabric Eduard seat belts, the rest is from the box inc decals

My eyes widen, my tongue hangs out, and I go mute looking at those photos. All three of your latest are absolutely fantastic builds. You are an artist, in a class I cannot quite achieve.

Wow Mike, amazing stuff. Love the US Navy aircraft in particular
