Raptor01 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 97% Complete, only a couple ASRAM's for the outer pylons. This was an OOB build except for the extended intake trunking and fan faces. Just a couple ASRAM's and some tweaks on some details and its finished. Here are a few pix.

Aggressor Supporter Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Nice looking Typhoon there. Like the tinted canopy and accentuated lines which makes it look very detailed. Is this the 1/48 Revell kit? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Nice scheme and weathering, is this an operational scheme? I am not up on the Sqns that willoperate the Typhoon :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bryan Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Nice Typhoon, Number 3 Squadronseems to be operating a few aircraft in this scheme. Nice. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RSV1000R Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 I'd say that is the nicest example of this kit I've seen so far. Again, I like the weathering, especially the panel lines and the APU exhaust stain. Cheers, Ed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
madmike Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Very nice indeed. I am getting more and more keener on the Typhoon, especially the family model. :) MikeJ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IJ(UK) Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Like the other guys have said.... very, very nice model. Love the fact that it is wearing WWII codes on the fin-tip too ! Ian Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rolfetechart Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Oooooohhh that's nice! One of the nicest builds I've seen of that plane so far. Nice subtle weathering...just right :) Looking forward to seeing more of your work Mark Mark Rolfe Technical Art Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raptor16 Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Looks nice! Wich colour did you use for the Typhoon? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HAZER Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Nice job on the kit! I can't wait to get my hands on this kit. Lovely weathering, a little dirty but not overdone. Congrats on a great addition to your collection. HAZER Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Raptor01 Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 Thanks fellas, I used Humbrol HU 167 Barley Grey & Model Master Flint Gray for the colors. I still have a few tweaks to go, ie: blending the front wind screen, ASRAM's and a few touch ups, the usual stuff you find after you finish. Airliners.net has a great selection of Eurofighter Typhoon's for reference, a lot of No. 3 Squadron birds, Thanks to all the Brits who post them up. I'll post again when I get it 100% complete and set up some better lighting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
