The Techmod 1/24 decals set is designed for detailed enhancement of 1/24 scale plastic aircraft models. This product from TECHMOD allows for the precise reproduction of unique historical markings on fighter aircraft models, significantly increasing their realism and collector's value.
The decals are prepared with meticulous attention to detail, a hallmark of Techmod products. Made from a thin, durable film, they ensure easy application and excellent adhesion to the model's surface, minimizing the silvering effect and providing a smooth finish.
Application and Compatibility

Model Compatibility:
This decal set is dedicated to Hawker Hurricane Mk.Ic plastic aircraft models in 1/24 scale.
It can also be used for other Hawker Hurricane model variants in the same scale, provided the markings' specifics allow and are consistent with historical usage.
Kit Contents and Marking Versions
The package contains a decal sheet with all necessary elements to replicate the chosen paint scheme. The graphics on the sheet match the product preview images.
Marking Versions Available in the Set:
POLSKA / Hawker Hurricane Mk I, UZ-V V7118, 306 Sqn RAF (Polish), Ternhill, November 1940
Application Tips and Additional Accessories
For optimal results when applying decals, it is recommended to use specialized decal solutions (known as decal softeners and setters). These solutions improve the adhesion of the film to irregular surfaces, eliminate air trapped under the decals, and integrate the markings with the clear coat. Products of this type are available in the Modeling Chemicals section.
To further enhance your Hawker Hurricane Mk.Ic 1/24 model, we encourage you to explore our wide range of additional modeling accessories, such as: photo-etched sets, resin detail parts, painting masks for canopies or wheels, and pilot figures. These elements will help you achieve an even higher level of realism and detail for your model.
Suggested Model Paint Colors
To replicate the paint scheme of the Hawker Hurricane Mk I from RAF 306 Squadron from November 1940, colors consistent with the British "Temperate Land Scheme" (day fighter camouflage) used during that period are recommended. Suggested colors include:
Dark Earth – upper surfaces
Dark Green – upper surfaces
Sky – lower surfaces
Most model paint manufacturers offer equivalents of these historical colors.
