This is my second completed kit of 2020 – all due to Corvid-19 lockdown and the great surge in model building that swept the pages of Facebook.
\nThe kit is pretty intesting. The parts count seems high for what you end up with. But there are many alternative parts which help add to the fun of this build. My only complaint is that nearly every part needed scraping and cleaning to remove mold and seam lines. Laborious and teadious.
\nMy version shown in the photos was built straight from the box without anything else being added.<\/p>\n

Manufacturer<\/h2>\n

Airfix<\/a>
\nAt the time of writing the kit was not available from Airfix. My build was from the standalone boxing, although I do have another boxed with the Albion refueller and Hurricane Mk I.<\/p>\n
