Ok - planning on tackling a 1/24 Hurricane that I picked up cheap in a store. Having trouble locating camouflage masks here in the US.

Not afraid to make my own, just want to see if anyone has blown up the paint guide on a photocopier or printer to be able to cut out the masks

Thanks in advance
 
I have the Airfix 1/24 Hurricane.
However I am a long way away from starting the build. Maybe years away.
Anyway, I plan on tackling the camo freehand...meaning no pre-made camo masks.
The pattern is well documented, you can find plenty of reference for laying out the design.
(I'll probably use an enlarged paper pattern like you suggested)

I really don't know if this pattern was originally applied using stencils, (I'm going to research this).
It probably was, although it may have been a freehand paint application, in which case no two planes would be exactly alike.
Very similar, but not perfectly alike.

There's probably someone on ebay with a stencil mask, but probably not cheap.
 
Thanks, I've actually bitten the bullet, got a set coming from Blighty, £22 with postage to the US

For contrast, got a 1/48 Spit set for $6 incl postage from over here for the other build I have coming out the stash
