Scans of my old sketches of Hawker Hurricane cockpit detail. I drew these some 30 years ago and never imagined they would still be of interest.

Hi folks, I was going to upload better images of my Hurricane cockpit sketches but apparently they are too big? Long term plan is to get them published in a small pamphlet but meanwhile if anyone wants a preview please let me know and I can email them. Paul

I'm afraid I was only ever published in magazines such as Scale Aircraft Modelling and Militarily Model Craft. You might be able to get back issues from the publishers or old copies on the likes of ebay. I'm sorry I don't have more to offer.

Well nothing so far. I did stuff for SAM for a couple of years around the turn of the century but its all a bit of a fog now. I note that the images on pinterest, or indeed the wider internet, are rather poor quality, so, if you want, I will scan the originals and email you a copy to share with anyone who thinks they might be of use?

Thank you for that, much appreciated. As for the page number I suspect it is from Scale Aircraft Modelling probably Volume 24 issue No. nine or ten, November or December 2002? I will do some checking and get back to you.

Hi dnl42, despite the M prefix I am the Paul Lloyd who did those drawings. As far as I can recall they were onky ever published in Quarter Scale Modeller magazine from the 1990's. Unfortunatley I no longer have a copy to hand but I do have the originals if proof be needed. PS. Just discovered the relevant copy of QSM November 1995, however it has an earlier version so the one you have there is from subsequent publication about which sadly my memory fails me.
