1/48 Hawker Typhoon - first completion of 2013


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

My first post here on the forum, so might as well make it a good one, right?

Here's my 1/48 Hasegawa Typhoon. I used the BarracudaCast cockpit set, various Ultracast and Quickboost items, and some scratchbuilt details.

All paints are Tamiya acrylics, and this was my first attempt at using Montex masks for the markings.

 

WIP pics can be found on my Facebook page: Brewer Models

Some levers are not yet installed in these pics, didn't want to knock them off while fiddling with the tub

Whoa - that's nice, really really nice. Such a great looking aircraft. Why, oh why doesn't a large respected manufacturer offer this in 1:32nd??

1:48 is great - just look at what you've achieved, a stunning build, but can you imagine this in 1:32nd ??

Haha don't do that, Nathan! Build it!

Once you get past the weird fuselage insert for the cockpit it's a joy of a kit!

 

I hate that I didn't get to post the rest of the WIP photos since we lost the other forum, but they're posted on my FB page

Man, you've done a great job on this Typhoon Brewer!  I always think it's such a brutal looking war machine, and your model captures that image perfectly.   It makes me want to throw my Monogram Typhoon away now, lol.  Yep, she's a beaut Brewer!
