Decals for the kit 70042 Hurricane Mk II b/c Expert set are one of the richest in Arma Hobby’s offer. Six markings options represents different theatres of operation, time period, camouflage and marking types. One decal sheet contains markings for at last two complete models. So let’s see decals and colour profiles from the kit.
Kit decals
It was hard to make a sharp photo of tiny markngs on so big decal sheet (13 x 18 cm). I tried some close-ups with focus on details.
