I am fascinated by the actions in Malta. I have a map of the harbour at Valletta, and have acquired Gloster Gladiators to act as Faith, Hope and Charity from the early part of the siege.
But the Gladiators were replaced, first by Hurricanes and then by Spitfires. I have a couple of Spits painted in "Malta blue" but wanted to add a Hurricane, so did this one: K of 185 Squadron, flying out of Hal Far in Malta. The Ju87 Picchiatello is about to bomb a ship in the harbour, and the Hurricane is going to stop it.
