Airfix 1/24 Hawker Typhoon MK1B

November 27, 2017 · in Aviation · · 21 · 4.3K

Biggest model I`ve built to date, and an enjoyable one to do. This is still work in progress as regards the ordnance which is constructed but not painted. I used some artistic licence on this model and put my own initials on the fuselage and painted the nose cone a different colour just for fun.
