Lee Drennen’s 1/72 Matchbox Hawker Hurricane IIC

[Lee Drennen]

Here’s my entry thanks Peter for Hosting and putting this on. I thought I would just stick to the Matchbox theme being I’ve never built very many of them. Thanks and hope you follow along.

Thanks Tony for stopping by. I’m thinking about it would be something different.

Nice choice Lee, good luck with your build

Incidentally Lee, regarding Matchbox kits there’s a YouTuber who collects and reviews them if you’re interested

Thanks for stopping by Geoff. Yes I’ve seen Peter’s videos he’s kinda the reason I got interested in the 1/72?Matchbox kits. He does very nice reviews of them

Glad I could take you back

Always nice to see a geriatric Matchbox kit built. A bit of effort and they usually build up well.

Lee,
I don't think I ever built a matchbox kit so will follow along with interest.

Nice one Lee , are you doing the night fighter version ?

Tony I’ve decided to do the Night Fighter version. Thanks for pointing it out I think it will be something different from the rest and my future Hurricane builds.

I'm in, any cake left ?

That night fighter scheme will certainly stand out from the other Hurricanes Lee

Yes it will Joe I really like that scheme. I’m Going to try to get some paint on it maybe this week.

Apologies Late to the party. I like the idea of a night paint job.

 

[Jim R]

Definitely a camo scheme that will look great and also different from the usual schemes we see
