@AussieReg You shouldn’t have to wait long for that Hurricane, it’s for release “beginning 2023” according to the Arma web shop! I’m sure you won’t be disappointed!

@Russelle As always, thanks :slight_smile: !


Front part of the flaps dressed up using Bare Metal “matte aluminium”. This is always a disappointment since burnishing it down will turn it into a mirror finish every time. Oh well, a quick coat of matte varnish toned it down a bit. Also, the metal frames around the glazing was a lot easier to do than I had thought, I just used Parafilm and cut along the edges.


And then the P-39. Doors are in clear plastic, avoiding the tricky fitting of a clear pane into the frame, thanks a lot for that one Arma :slight_smile: !

@AussieReg There are more photos like the one you posted on Bud Anderson’s web page. Lots of interesting stuff and he seems to have understood that we modellers are big fans! Regarding the clear doors: an obvious case of industrial espionage, they need to tighten the security at Arma :grin: !

@BlackWidow Thanks!
