Hawker Typhoon 1:24

It's been a while since I posted any of my builds. I just finished FiddlersGreen 1:24 Hawker Typhoon and took some picts to show it off.

No build photos, I took zero. I'm taking a break from doing build threads because I have a couple of other build threads coming up.

This is a really well designed model, everything fits perfect and it looks really great. I put a scale Typhoon pilot in some of the images to give it some sense of size. About the only part that was a pain was cutting out the 8 wing rockets....


Enjoy,

Beautiful job on the build! Looks to be one of the best Fiddler's models. Rally captures the plane.

Great job! It holds up very well even in the large scale.

Actually, this model was provided at 1:24 scale, there was no rescaling on my part....... I'm guessing it would take 1:20 to 1:16 with no trouble.

Looks like a top notch FG model and a great build of it.

I've wanted a Typhoon for quite a while - this model I'll have to build (at 1/72 scale).

Thanks for the inspiration!
