Just bought this kit. I built the Airfix version in 1976. My first kit ever. This kit is mind blowing. Lots of goodies inside. Can’t wait to start.
That was the best 40 odd minutes of my time well spent.
I was concerned about the length a little bit ! Thanks for the encouragement!
Your patience level is off the charts. This kit is a world away from the Airfix one of my youth! Outstanding work.
i know Im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a way to get back into an Instagram account??
I somehow forgot the login password. I would love any tips you can offer me
@Harley Malcolm Instablaster =)
@Alden Brennan i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Alden Brennan it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my ass !
@Harley Malcolm happy to help :D
I like your style of presentation, paucity of narration (but informative and concise) and camera work very much indeed. I hope to see a lot more of your work in due course.
Lovely work, Mate! I like your color scheme for the exhaust stacks!
It was a risk going for the coppery shade but it paid off. Thanks!
I'm excited to watch this build as this Arma kit has had my attention for a while. Looks like great detail. I'm impressed.
It's a great kit highly recoomended !
seriously, the best Hurricane step by step build on youTube
Thank you for the video. I learned a lot good tips that will help me with a 1/72 Airfix Lancaster I am working on. I have had difficulty getting the British green and brown (dark earth) just right. I was using Testors acrylics, and now I am using Tamiya acrylics.
Beautiful work well done. I have this same kit coming. Been away from modeling for 50 years, time for a come back...lol
Best of luck ! Test fit the cockpit tub a lot.. there was a bit of an issue but nothing major
One note -303, despite having a British commander initially, wasn't a combined squadron. It was a Polish Air Force squadron since it's inception. Frantisek, despite being a Czech, flew with them because shortly before the war he became a pilot and instructor in PAF.
Thanks Pijawek that sheds some more light on the history of 303 for me. Its an interesting squadron that had some brave people
@@lpjmodels 303 was responsible for more downed german planes than any other RAF F C Squadron during the Battle of Britain.
Thank you, Poland.
My favourite aircraft of all time, super nice build.
Weathering was very nice, although I was surprised you didn't put any muzzle soot staining or tried to replicate the red patches over the gun holes or am I asking too much ?
Absolutely great work, look forward to seeing more from you, so many gorgeous British aircraft.
Amazing build and informative commentary....lots of tips and techniques....a terrific watch for modelers new and experienced. Thanks for providing a well paced and delivered video experience.
Fantastic video, Incredible detailing and I've never seen anyone weather decals before so thank you for sharing..... Have a great week!!!
Thanks Neil you too !
Great build, James. Just got the Arma double set for Dieppe. It's outstanding.
Very nice. Always a fan of the Hurricane, one of my all time favorite aircraft. Just love the look of it, and you do it justice with your great work. 👍
Fantastic! So many tips and ideas gathered from this one video. Outstanding build and paint job. Thank you so much.
MrD53
Really enjoyed your work especially the commentary which really helps as I'm just coming back into the hobby after a long absence and I totally agree about keeping the whole thing in proportion. Marvellous work thanks so much.
Thankyou I'm glad it was useful !
you make it look so easy, but i know it's far from. Fantastic end result, and so authentic. Awesome!
Thanks Derek! Practice make it easier
Gorgeous absolutely Gorgeous, The finish is fantastic the time you spent on weathering must have taken days.
Thanks Chris ! On a smaller kit like this it didn't take too long ( as soon as an oil layer is dry to the touch I will move on)
Your detailing rocks...i am ferry impressed.
Lovely weathering! Thanks for the video!
watching this while listening to Some Kind Of Blue... One of the best time
Thankyou !
Very nice kit and you have done justice to it. Brilliant detail work. Congratulations :)
I can't see the point of 'black basing' as it just looked like dark green and dark earth at the end, but maybe the effect is too subtle for the camera. I think the subsequent weathering on top of the base colours achieves the effect you need and cuts out a few steps. But I'm a bit old school! Nevertheless the end result is stunning and your weathering is a lot more realistic than the 'shaded panel line, lightened panel centre' school. In fact I think the scale effect is spot on and it's one of the best examples of 'realistic' as opposed to 'artistic' weathering I've seen for a while.
That's a massive compliment Ian thankyou !
The black basing to me just gives the base coat a little more variety before weathering, after messing about with layers and effects I find it hard to lay down a solid colour, I'm always reaching for another technique or something just to break it up a bit more.
I'm glad you think the weathering is realistic, I did a lot of research on the weathering of BOB hurricanes before I dared lay any paint down.
Many thanks !
There's quite a flogged Hurricane... Like they would have looked during the Battle of Britain.
Arma Hobby seems to have nailed it too. This might be the best Hurricane in 1:72nd scale today.
Nice job! Thank you for showing this kit to us.
Radu thankyou its definable got the edge over the newer tool airfix . Very refined details. I used a lot of reference photos to get the right amount of weathering. Thankyou !
Awesome result. looking for a cheap airbrush set up to have a go, after 30 odd years away from building anything. Lots of techniques there to have a go at, thank you. 👏👍
Hi Jon ! My advice is to get the best you can afford, while you can get reasonable results with cheap gear you'll likely get more headaches in the long run.
That being said a lot of people have good luck with the cheapo ebay £30 airbrushes, but these I would view as more a disposable bit of kit as getting spares might be troublesome. I started with a sparmax sp35 but outgrew it very quickly.
Your compressor will be the biggest investment to start with, as long as it can put out at least 25-30 psi you'll be set, anything more for modelling is unnecessary. Best of luck !
@@lpjmodels thanks, looking at Bartsharp AC01 compressor and possibly one of their 25 quid airbrushes just to get me started......... what d’you reckon?
Fantastic build and weathering ,the only thing to me was the clarity of the canopy it seemed a bit misty or is it my eye sight !! either way a top presentation well done
Thanks Trinescape it does look a bit misty and I dont know what happened, i had to make my own masks (not quite there yet with that) so that could have been tidier, and maybe the oil wash left a residue, I usually polish my canopies with polishing compound before painting and that usually helps as well.
I learn so much from you. Thank u. This looks like the real thing too.
I'd have had the canopy open to show off that lovely cockpit if I were you but that looks awesome :)
All of those layers of paint, and the panel lines still hold a wash! Amazing work!
Love your videos! I learn so much from each one! Can't wait to return from holiday and try some of the techniques you've shown here!
Thanks a lot MrJoe99998 ! Hopefully there will be plenty more tips and tricks to come !
Great video! Picked up quite a few tips and tricks here. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thankyou mate ! Really appreciate you watching !
Lovely model and great tips as well.
Thanks a lot :)
Just beautiful!!!
What a beauty! Well done!
Very good 😎 excelente 👍 trabajo saludos cordiales desde 🇨🇱
Josef Frantisek was a czech pilot who escaped to poland after germany invaded czechoslovakia . Later he flown in september 1939 in polish air force , then moved with polish pilots to britain
Polish-made kit. Hawker Hurricane. You had to honour 303 with this one. Well done.
P.S. - Have you seen the film "Hurricane"?
yes it was a pretty decent film !
Excellent job.
Congratulations. Wonderful job!
Great modeler, great work would love to see you built a |Spit fire Eduard Kit 1/48
Very nice Hurricane!
An excellent example of an icon of the British Air Ministry and it's flyer during the Second World War.
Great build! Nice little kit
your voice is so soothing :)
Assolutamente stupendo!!!
I am surprised to see how yours fits together nicely. The cockpit is giving a hard time and won't allow me to get fuselage halfs together.
Wouter I think the bulkheads are a bit too big, (can't remeber exactly ) but there was some minor trimming on mine, its always tricky to fit everything into a vid.
Enjoyed the build!
Glad you did many thanks !
Отличная модель в варианте ,експерт,.Хотя ,аирфикс, тоже неплох.
Do you have a link for the material you use to make the Camouflage Masks with??? "OUTSTANDING" build!
Many thanks ! And of course, the masking material is artool ultra mask, pretty good stuff.

What are you using to pick up photo etc parts? Is it just a crafting knife, or any thing special?
Just a scalpel ! They are small enough to lift without much pressure
Very much enjoyed picking up some new tips, currently experimenting with black basing. Couple of questions if I may? What psi are did you use in general and for spraying the trails from the underside shell casings? As my current build doesn't come with canopy masks would you recommend using the Artool film and cutting around it or do you use a specific masking tape? Keep it up from a new Subscriber!
great video!
Hi
so that is the way to make it looks faded -with that stensil rage.
but to other models how we know what color to use for example the Corsair or Hellcat ? what you suggest ?
Hello Efraim, you can use lighter and darker versions of the base coat, I like to start with black usually and build up a mottle with the airbrush. I use the stencils for pre and post texturing.
Very impressive bit a modelling. The video was also very well done, as was the voice-over escription. Nicely pulled together. Could the canopy have been displayed in the open position? P.S. Spectacular exhausts!!
Thanks Peter ! I dont remeber about the canopy I'm afraid, I'm fairly sure there was an option, but not 100%
@@lpjmodels Hi, Yes there's an option with opened canopy. There are two canopies in the kit. The "opened" is bit wider
Seems like Arma Hobby is the same as Eduard's?
Just purchased this model and was looking for a build video. WOW if only I can get it half as good as yours. FANTASTIC job sir hat of to you. I don't have a spray gun, is it worth the investment, any recommendations? thanks in advance.
Thanks Lee ! I think an airbush is a worthwhile investment if your invested in the hobby for sure, like all tools though they require practice so it worth looking at youtube videos or forum/Facebook tutorial posts.
Its good to buy the best you can afford, you can get cheap Chinese airbrushes to play with but you will outgrow them quickly.
Harder and steenbeck, iwata, badger, and Mr hobby all make good quality products. The spares for h&s and badger are easier on the wallet though.
You'll need a compressor, most people like one with a built in air tank ( this fills up only when needed keeping the process quieter)
I use one without and still get happy results though.
I don't think I would be happy with my vehicle modelling without and airbrush after making the shift. You can get great results with a brush, however once you're set up and practiced with an airbrush there processes become a lot more streamlined and you can get a wider variety of effects and finishes.
I hope that gives you something to chew on !
That is a great build!
Thanks John !
Excellent, sir!
In the print trade years ago we used to use frisket film for making up graphics, is that artool clear film that you used for your masking the same stuff? I like the idea of another black base for the second colour. Is that mission paint acrylic or lacquer? Wondering if I could get similar results with my Vallejo acrylics?
Really like your work and your videos are very instructional - what's the name again of the masking sheet that you use for the camo?
Thanks Ivan, its artool ultramask !
Pretty sure most of the hurricane mk 1 were part aluminum part fabric covered. But it looks great
Hi Rick, this is the steel wing variant, the fabric starts behind the cockpit panels, all metal areas were appropriately chipped and fabric left as is
Absolutely beautiful model, but the weathering was a tad overkill. I can tell you’re a Warhammer guy because weathering is the focal point of those figurines. Would love to see your Warhammers.
Thanks Jimmy. I use a lot of references to get a feel for my subjects and how they wear, controlling it however in a smaller scale is a bit more tricky (don't often do 1/72) I appreciate the feedback.
And I haven't touched a warhammer kit in my life, there are a lot of talented 40k painters out there though
What's up with the fw 190 with the cross hatch pattern do you have a reference source for that
Sure

After it is done and painted, and set out for a few days, is there then a desire to blow it up with a firecracker, perhaps while being videoed?
Occasionally.. but selling is much better for my pocket
I was wondering. Back in my model-building days (mostly cars) I would put them up on a shelf for a month or so but invariably I would have the desire to blow them up with firecrackers. Skeeter airplanes, those $2 rubberband-powered aircraft, had the same fate. We'd tape a firecracker on the fuselage, wind-up the rubberband, light the firecracker fuse and then quickly throw plane off a bridge.
A great job, however, I would have preferred less pronounced panel lines.
Thanks a lot Vincent. They are less noticable in person!
Lovely build and finish. My hobby store recently started stocking arma planes. Doe the kit come with a pilot?
No unfortunately not. With the amount of detail on there I would be surprised to fit one in 😀
Great job!
Awesome mate....subscribed 😎👍
Thanks mate !
Superb !!!
1/72 rocks
Terrific work......but a bit too much work for me!
I do however, appreciate fine 1/72nd scale models!
I once contemplated buying the Iskra of Arma Hobby, but read here and there that Amra fit is a horror. The expert sets are extremely detailed. Like the new Yak kit = amazing. But it seems a lot of money if filling is still required...
This one was about £14 not bad for the detail and quality. The Iskra was an earlier kit and they have improved since then !
What is the exact name for this texture mask ?
Hello Piotr it is the Artool texture fx mini. Link is in the discription.
Nice done! Looks good! ;)
Thanks a lot !
Enjoyable video, but I just don’t get this extreme weathering. Looks like it has been on the scrap yard for five years.
Hi William thanks for watching! I tend to weather to reference if it permits and there were a lot of beat up mk1s around the battle of Britain time, the chipping on the wing roots, metal sections of the fuselage and gun bays were pretty prevalent as well as the dirt build up.
Weathering can be quite subjective and it's not to everyone's taste either way , many thanks for your feedback!
lpj models I am intending to have a go at weathering in order to improve my skills. I am starting an Airfix Canberra PR9 and will try a milder version using your methods. Wish me luck.
Ahh the Canberra, lovely aircraft! Best of luck with it, I'm sure it will come out top !
Отлично!!!
Спасибо !
Great build but your choice of music is absolutely appalling.
At first I couldn't remember if I'd started using stock music for this one as its quite old, so I went and checked, the music wasn't chosen, me and a friend made it, sorry it sucks. Newer videos have stock music from epidemic sound.
14 August is coming so whu do not you make a Tempest MK II of Pakistan Air Force which was the first fighter of the countryy.
Love from Pakistan.
Also i was thinking of making a historical Halifax that was used by the Pakistan Air force
Ahh if only I had the time to mark such an occasion ! Unfortunately I have loads of projects to get done
Many thanks for watching ! And there may be a Pakistani aircraft in the future!
@@lpjmodels thanks a lot for considering my offer man !! I love the beautiful work you do.
@@lpjmodels Yh im looking forward to it. Its nice to make and understand each countries Air force and achievments
"vallejo" is actually pronounced "bayeho"
That is the correct term yes.. if I decided though to pronounce it in the proper Spanish manner a lot of people wouldn't know what I meant.
@@lpjmodels yep, fair enough.
I hate these kits,they are so beautifuly detailed inside and once completed YOU CAN'T SEE ANYTHING!!! What a waste.
"Over shadowed by the success of the spitfire"....the hurricane actually was more successful than the spitfire.
You could say over shadowed by the fame of the spitfire.
Good point!
@@lpjmodels I'm just stating a fact
I wasnt arguing it, you're right. A misspeak on my part
