  1. Still slowly loading pic's, be patient. ----------
    Done now, thanks.

  2. Excellent result, my friend Allan!
    Excellent build thread too!

  3. A precise build and a very smooth finish, Allan. Great to see a Typhoon in desert colours. It was a pleasure to follow your project in the Desert Air War GB.

  4. That turned out very nice, Allan.

  5. A very nice looking Typhoon, Allan @kalamazoo
    Looks really good in this desert scheme.

  6. Excellent camouflage. I love the Tiffie. I only see one mistake: ditching into an on-coming wave! From what I have read, ditching a Typhoon with that huge radiator inlet was dicey at best.

  7. Very nice! Did know this manufacturer made a 1/72 Typhoon. Strange box art to say the least...

  8. Very nice Typhoon , Allan.
    The Brengun kit looks very nice, and you did a very nice work - as usual.

  9. G’day Allan (@kalamazoo),
    This is a nicely done Typhoon.
    As I recall, the Brits only tested a couple of these in the desert environment.
    Had they persisted, they would have had a decent sand filter ready for the dust of France after D-day.
    Liked!

  10. Terrific Typhoon, Allan.

  11. Well done - we don't see many Typhoons in desert camo.
