>>9334005My dad was a very good painter and all round handyman and got me an Airfix Hawker Hurricane in 1/72 when I was about 6. I still have it and it looks exactly like you'd think, pic related, but it got me hooked and I've largely been building ever since. I have twice bought the same kit again to rebuild it and make a "how far have I come" comparison, most recently in 2017 (also pic related) right after I got my first airbrush. I really should get around to making another one since my skill level has gone way beyond that grainy pic.
>>9336435Looks like good childhood memories, anon. I used to hang mine from the ceiling with sewing thread as if they were dogfighting but I don't have any pics
