Since we have 10 days left to the end of this GB, and I've done my 2nd Anniversary GB Spit I'm going to build another model for this one. Maybe my 1/72 Hurricane Mk IIb

You can't go far wrong with this old girl. She's a beauty TopGun.

Still my favourite Hurricane model to build, although the Revell ones come in a close second.
