Airfix's 1/24 scale
Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB
Part One

Painted by Chris Wauchop
Built by Brett Green

Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB


Hasegawa's 1/32 scale Messerschmitt Bf 109 G-6 is available online from Squadron.com

 

Description

 

Chris Wauchop has just finished painting and weathering the forthcoming Airfix 1/24 scale Hawker Typhoon.

 

 

This is a spectacular kit that features a remarkable level of detail straight from the box.

Fit is generally excellent, and there are plenty of useful options including the choice of three and four blade propellers, small and large tail surfaces, different radiator configurations and more.

 

 

Chris used Xtradecals' 1/24 scale Typhoon decals, Item No. X24003, for the unique markings. These are available right now from Hannants.

The model was painted with Testor's metal bodied Aztek airbrush fitted with the fine tan coloured tip.

 

 

This model will be showcased in the next book from ADH Publishing, "How to Build the Airfix 1:24 Hawker Typhoon Mk.IB". This new book features an exhaustive step-by-step guide to construction with modelling contributions by Brett, Marcus Nicholls and Chris Wauchop.

Available early July. Pre-order now!
