Global Scale Modeller

Started a new model

Fit is not great but this is quite an oldish model
I'm going to paint it black as ZH588 at RAF museum Hendon

Started to paint the Typhoon tonight

Need to finish it tomorrow as the compressor got a bit hot

Nice work so far Graham, what "shade" of black are you using?

Hi thanks - i'm using humble Humbrol HU21 Gloss Black - Airbrushed at low pressure
I really need a better compressor with a tank as it got a bit hot after i'd sprayed my Mossie 1st

Finished painting the Tiffy, got some orange peel on the starboard wing and tail
Oh well some wet and dry should sort it out (I hope)

But looking cool in gloss black

Looks great, man. It only gets better knowing the kit you started with. Well done.

Some wet and dry and ready for a top coat of paint

Resprayed now, looks much better

And painted the wheel bays on the typhoon + added the weapons pylons

Good work. Well done !

Started the decals

More decals

Added final decals and wheels

Not much tonight, just a coat of clear

Added the pilot and canopy,

Just weapons and all done

Added the weapons and final coat of clear

all finished now
34. Airfix 1/72 Eurofighter Typhoon DA2




and my Photoshop action shot over Buttermere in the Lake District

Had this one in my stash for years
not bad considering it was a prototype release from Airfix
quite a nice build

Great to see a model of the prototype... and an excellent build of the old Airfix kit!! It is a beauty..

Nice job with that "Black Beauty" mate!
