PCM Tempest V

[Wingco57]

Hi all,

Here is the completed Tempest which as a sample was reviewed by Jeroen Peters and me

Here on LSM ( and LSP) Last year. Although a great kit, it gave me fits sometimes because of il- fitting

Parts such as the cockpit and the canopy. Nothing that couldn't be solved though. The result

is a very good representation of Hawkers finest. Apart from the wheels, which were replaced

By Barracuda items, the kit was built from the box.

 

You can find the work in progress here:

Hope you like it. I know I do.

Cheers

Cees

Love it!  I wish I had chance to see this when I visited Holland. 

 

Now, are you going to do the Special Hobby kit too?

[RalphSarc]

Fantastic Cees! Love the look. I have a Revell Hawker Typhoon that I'm looking forward to building this year so you've given my some inspiration!

Thanks Ralph,

Actually the Revell Typhoon is next in line. Always wanted the classic Hawker trio Sea Fury, Tempest

And Typhoon. I have two out of three now. Perhaps the Hurricane should join them too.

Cheers

Jim,

Don't know, the Mk II I always liked. We'll see. Perhaps we can do a similar review as this one

To compare.

Well done Cees, a really great rendering! 

[Steve Scanlon]

Excellent looks every bit the brute they were, lovely build.

[Paulster]

Don't realize how big it is until the picture of you holding it in your hand.

[JeroenPeters]

Really nice and you nailed the angle of the wings!

It's a beast!!

Jeroen,

Yeah, fitting a plastic spar made sure the centre section stays horizontal.
