Airfix Eurofighter Typhoon 1/72

The 617 build is over on Whatifmodelers done by tc2324 http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php ... adron.html;.

Much better than the actual 70th Anniversary scheme they chose.

Typhoon is looking good.

That's a brilliant scheme for the Tornado. Lovely idea and well executed.

I did a TSR.2 in a bomber scheme with 617 tail markings, it's in Aviation Modelling under 'TSR.2 colour scheme'.
(It's Jan 2014, 1st I think).

And it looks very good

A second coat of English Uniform on tonight.



I may do the green bits on the wings and tail before I start on the front.

Smooth - looking good Andrew.

I just downloaded the grey/green camo scheme for the Javelin. I'll adapt that for the Eurofighter:








That's come out rather well with only one coat of green.

Looks really nice!.

[fredk]

That looks good.
Have you got a light smudge on port fuselage, rear, brown area under the leading edge of the fin?

[ShaunW]

That is looking good Andrew. Re Fred's comment, has the masking lifted the paint a bit in that area?

[AndrewR]

It's a bit of paint which came off the silly putty which I reused from the wheel wells. It's aluminium, so I think I'll leave it and call it "paint chipping"

[AndrewR]

I finally have time to mask the nose for English Uniform painting.

I love where you're going with this - it'll look great when DOne.

I thought it was a really nice kit actually - but I had to ditch mine as no matter how many times I tried to sort it out - it had a horrible warp in the wings.

I'll get anotehr someday, but first I'll build the Revell kit I have in the Stash!

cheers

I also have a Hobbyboss two seater

[ShaunW]

This is really looking very nice Andrew. Do you have a special scheme in mind for the HB two seater?

Here's the camo on the nose.





Just one bit I don't really like. Nose is next.
