1/24 Hurricane I recommended for Airfix

The Hawker Hurricane Mk.I is one of the most important British fighter aircraft of the early phase of World War II and is firmly one of the icons of the Battle of Britain period. In scale 1:24, the cockpit is highly visible and the dashboard is a detail that the viewer "reads" almost instantly - whether or not he letsthe cab overlay open, or just rely on the large scale to allow a glimpse inside even when the cab is closed. That's why a quality instrument panel is one of the most effective accessories: it adds credibility to the cockpit and saves time that would otherwise go into intricately painting tiny dials.

The Yahu Models kit includes colour etched instrument panels designed for the Hurricane I / Hawker Hurricane Mk.I. The etchings are factory finished (in color, with sharply drawn alarms, subtle labels, and realistic looking instruments), eliminating the laborious layering of decals or hand "micro-painting" of details. In addition, the natural impression of depth and precision that etching usually offers compared to a plastic piece stands out at this scale.

The add-on is designed for Airfix kits and is recommended for the 1:24 scale Airfix Hawker Hurricane Mk.I. The assembly is designed as a JustStick: typically you just separate the part, dry test the seating and glue it in place. For best results, it's worth checking the original plastic panel - if it has significant protruding details, it may be worth gently flattening them so that the etch sits cleanly, without gaps, and doesn't look unnecessarily layered. The result is a much more realistic cockpit that will look convincing when viewed in the cockpit and on the finished model in the display case.
