Hello to all
My name is Santiago Hrubisko and I live in Argentine. My father, Raul Hrubisko, began modelling at the age of 14. His interest, like many other modellers', was sparked by an imaginative book, a wartime story involving the Mosquito. Soon followed the interest for the airplane and then for modelling. Our aim is to model all the aircraft types that flew with the Royal Air Force, the Fleet Air Arm and all the Commonwealth in the time frame between 1934 and 1947, in all major versions. And to include also Lend-Lease and captured enemy types.
We have just finished the project which include the aircrafts designed and used by the Commonwealth aircraft Corporation during WWII . Please find attached the following pictures:

Since last year I have been doing a research for our current project, the Hawker Hurricane collection. I have selected aprox 100 Hurricanes. My father has made 21 so far. The reason of this post is that I would like to include a RNZAF Hurricane in this collection.
I will really appreciate if someone could help us telling if there was any interesting NZ-related Hurricane color schemes that we should include.
This is the list of all the Hurricane done so far
