Hi Jamie, Welcome aboard. Have fun!

Hi there!
Hi Davy, welcome aboard. We're a small but friendly bunch, with plenty of knowledge between us. I use a Portrait 3 too - it's a useful machine, and dooes everything I need it to.

Forum Software Upgrade - IMPORTANT!
Well done Kev. Looks good here so far. Many thanks for your efforts. Wait a minute, complete change of emojis. I daresay we'ΔΊl get used to them, but I'll miss the "mad pilot" one. Thanks still stands, though.π

Hi, and welcome aboard.

Best transparent transfer medium ?
Agreed, I use that too, although when you cut a bit the right size, removing the backing can be "entertaining"

HurricaneIIc-LE336.studio3
- 3 downloads
- Version 1.0.0
Main markings for a Hurricane IIc of 34 Sqn, Palel, India, 1943-44. It had an interesting colour scheme according to the reference I found: a variant of Azure Blue underneath, with Dark Earth/Dark Green in a modified pattern above. The Azure is there as many aircraft in this theatre at this time were diverted from their original destination of the Middle East, so carried a desert scheme originally. Here's the original courtesy of "tomthounaojam" on Britmodeller. Sized for the Arma Hobby 1/48 Kit, but no doubt adaptable to other scales. Includes spares of each marking. -

The Azure is there as many aircraft in this theatre at this time were diverted from their original destination of the Middle East, so carried a desert scheme originally. The code letter is white as far as I can tell, and the spinner is said to be "India White", the very pale blue used in the centre of SEAC roundels. Here's the original courtesy of "tomthounaojam" on Britmodeller. Sized for the Arma Hobby 1/48 Kit, but no doubt adaptable to other scales. The tropical filter and underwing racks are not used in the kit markjing options, but are included on the sprues, so if you have the boxing with the Night Intruder on the front you're good to go: that's the one I used. Includes spares of each marking. Submitter MikeC Submitted 04/20/2025 Category Specific Aircraft

Hurricane IIc, 34 Sqn, India, 1943-4 - Arma Hobby 1/48
This is the Arma Hobby 1/48 Hurricane done from the box. OK, but being me it's not absolutely according to the instructions. I went for a tropicalised variant from 34 Sqn in India 1943-1944. This utilised the tropical filter which is supplied in the kit, but not used by the supplied decal options; this is also true of the bombs: I replaced the kit bombs (which are supplied but not used) with a pair from ICM's RAF WWII weapons set. It also had an interesting colour scheme according to the reference I found: a variant of Azure Blue underneath, with Dark Earth/Dark Green in a modified pattern above. The Azure is there as many aircraft in this theatre at this time were diverted from their original destination of the Middle East, so carried a desert scheme originally. Here's the original courtesy of "tomthounaojam" on Britmodeller. All markings painted with masks cut on my trusty Portrait 3 - apart from those in the cockpit and on the bombs, no decals were harmed in making this model. Not my best model, I'm afraid - these things happen - but I'm mostly happy with it.

Thanks Kev, saw this on LSP: sorted on both sites. π Good luck with the upgrade.

Hello to everyone!
Hi Bogdan, welcome aboard. Those models are a most impressive introduction. That's certainly how I work, and (I suspect) most of us - there are some things in some scales that cannot be done, as they are too complex or physically too small for the cutter.

Checks can be a fiddly to get right, but it's very rewarding when you do. If you're interested, I did a detailed WIP: they're not perfect, but good enough imo. They do indeed. Nice Pony Kev, just shows that these old kits can scrub up very well.
