( First posted at the GB / CloD /skins site.)
Way back in the beginning of CloD there were several non-standard Hurricane skins available. If memory serves one was an all blue post war racing(?) skin & the other was an all red weather (?) skin version.There may have been one or two others but I never saw an all metal skin of any pre-production models.Last week I received a copy of Hawker Hurricane Mk1 a Wingleader Photo Archive Number Three compiled & written by Mark Postlewaite .On page 12 this beauty is pictured an ex-56 SquadronL1606 kite purchased back from the Air Ministry and used by Hawker for "trials"during the war.I'm not sure how or if metal skins work well with Clod and DWT jpg's,in GB they are absolutely stunning.In any case I thought perhaps one of the excellent skinners here might like to try to give this one a go.It would be lovely to go swanning about the 1940 English countryside in this "flash" Hurri!
