Yeah it's packed in there and I love the way Arma Hobby fits the parts. I did have to "adjust" a few things to make the wing fit because it fits very snuggly. A little sanding here, scraping there and with a little tape and clamping it looks good.

I've since attached the tail planes and made up the radiator scoop. I need to do a little filling here and there and it should be ready for black basing.
Starts to look like a Hurricane ! :-)

I've done a lot since my last post.

The kit is together except for the gear and prop. The painting and weathering is done but still want to add a little chipping.
One of the gear came off while priming.

OK, Its complete. Nice kit, great detail. I did have a very few fit issues but they were probably mine. The gear can be installed at the end avoiding breaking the part. I have another Arma kit that I'll build later with my experience with this build.
