Thanks Airfix! [1:72 typhoon]

Post by timtamtung »

I really enjoyed airfix's typhoon.
Pretty amazing kit, fitment not bad at all.
Even the wheels are weighted! Not even the top manufacturers provide those.

I do really appreciate their awesome cartograf decals. It is the highlight of my kit.

No I didn't. It is the most frustrating part when making aircraft for me. So for 1:72 ww2 aircraft, I chose not to do it.

However, I do them on 1:48 scale.
