I've been everywhere, man
The Hawker Hurricane is a British single-seat fighter aircraft that was designed and predominantly built by Hawker Aircraft Ltd for the Royal Air Force (RAF). Although largely overshadowed by the Supermarine Spitfire, the aircraft became renowned during the Battle of Britain, accounting for the majority of the RAF's air victories in the battle, and served in all the major theatres of the Second World War.

The 1930s design evolved through several versions and adaptations, resulting in a series of aircraft which acted as interceptor-fighters, fighter-bombers (also called "Hurribombers"), and ground support aircraft. Further versions known as the Sea Hurricane had modifications which enabled operation from ships. Some were converted as catapult-launched convoy escorts, known as "Hurricats". More than 14,000[1] Hurricanes were built by the end of 1944 (including about 1,200 converted to Sea Hurricanes and some 1,400 built in Canada by the Canada Car and Foundry).

Totally superb Smitty, absolutely beautiful!
 
Glad you guys like it! I don't think I'll post a team colored version, though I'm sure some intrepid modder might eventually.

I'm finally back in the states after a year overseas in Korea, so you should be seeing more units from me. Hopefully my stateside post will be a little less busy and I'll have more time for modding.
 
Thanks for the excellent additions.
 
Hey :)
Awsome work - I'm incorporating them to flavour graphics addon for 1939 Mod.
Really, really top quality texture (I've opened in nifskope and I'm amazed by quality of details) and model

BTW I release new version today - maybe the last one.
