Thanks for the nice comments.

Carlos - this plane is 32 squadron. I really liked the oversized markings. The decals were old and cracked - the national insignias were unusable, fortunately I had extras - though they're not exactly the right size. Took a little finessing to get the squadron/plane markings on the kit.

For the next Hurricane it will be 303 squadron - Witold Ubranowicz's mount. I'm in for a group build!

Another reason why I’ve been wanting to do a Hawker Hurricane kit. Gotta love the Polish 303 Squadron.

I used to know a fellow named Victor Swierkowsky, he had a shop that worked on "foreign" cars (there's a term that has lost all meaning!) and at the time I owned an E-Type Jag. I also towed gliders for him. He flew Spifires in a Polish squadron. His personality certainly reinforced what I have read about the manner of the Polish Squadron pilots. Thinking out of the box? What's a box?

As to a group build, expanding it to Hawker would make it more interesting. I don't know how GB's are administered here, but I would be up for it.

Creating a Group Build is pretty easy. Come up with a group build name, set some rules and start and end date. Put out a feeler if you’d like. If enough interests start a official thread. I’m definitely up for it.

It looks great to me!! Nice work!

I would be in for that. I've got a Tiffie in the que for next year

Well Hawker does cover from between the Wars biplanes to Cold War Jets... so many classic designs!

You're so right. I also just found my little HobbyBoss Sea Hawk

Yeah, I think expanding it to Hawker would make it more interesting. As long as the Hurricane gets enough love.

Here’s an idea... A Hurricane plus another Hawker type.... who’s feeling bold?
