This project came from a messed up Hurricane I have been sitting on for several years, that had the wings installed backwards, and then epoxied into place, so I could not remove and refit it. It was basically a junk Hurricane, and recently an idea to use it finally came to me.
I have a larger Firefly project in the works, so this is Firefly's Hurricane. It would be used to insert and extract him from enforcement, sabotage, and assassination missions. Inverted wings increase maneuverability over speed, which are useful in closer urban environments, the cockpit cannon has been replaced with a vulcan minigun, and the missiles have been replaced with an assortment of Russian issue rocket pods, missiles and bombs. There will be figures coming later, a Vapor and a Firefly, but I was pretty happy with this so I wanted to post it right away.

This came out better than I could have possibly imagined! I love the choice for the white missiles and decals. It gives it a very clean look. Like I told you before, that camo is spectacular!

Thanks, man. I am still a little on the fence because the missiles are from a 1/32 Russian aircraft kit, and are super HUGE on the Hurricane frame. I am pretty happy with the rocket pods, though.
