Special Hobby 1/32 Westland Whirlwind F Mk.1 "Cannon Fighter"
Special Hobby's Whirlwind with same company's pilot. Also some aftermarket parts used, like HGW seat belts and Special Hobby's urethane wheels. Antenna wires are Mig's 0,3 mm line.
Painted with AK Air Series 3rd generation acrylics (AK11840 RAF Dark Green, AK11841 RAF Dark Earth, AK11844 RAF Sky). Cockpit and wheel wells are painted with Vallejo Model Air color 71.305 (FS34373) Int. Grey Green
Weathering done with AK, Tamiya, Mig and Vallejo products.
Not so easy build, but not horrible either.
Fine build and finish including well-done weathering.
Nicely done - the paintwork and weathering make it come to life.
It's a great kit for anyone who likes this airplane, and you have certainly made the most out of everything in the box. Really nice result.
Wow, pretty dadgum spectacular. Excellent modelling overall, the 'pit looks really good, esp the seat harness.
Looks killer. Thanks for including the pilot figure which gives it a proper scale perspective. A much larger plane than I had originally envisioned when I built one in 1/48th. Terrific cockpit!
Great job on both plane and pilot.
Excellent result, Jarmo!
Well done!
Very well done Whirlwind!
This Whirlwind looks really nice, Jarmo @jp
Painting and weathering is beautifully performed.
Very nice looking Whirlwind, Jarmo.
Thank you all for comments. I'm pleased you all like it.
Super job Jarmo. Such a good looking aircraft. You have done a fantastic job on both pilot and plane 👍
