discussion Neils Airfix 1/72 Hawker Typhoon 1B

[Neil]

An improvement for sure over my last one, but the rocket rack on the right wing is off-skew and the paintwork is still heavy. However, this is probably the last hand-painted model as I now have an H&S airbrush. The decals are definitely better because I waited between coats of clear and putting them on - more by accident but it was a week so well and truly cured before the decals and then matted afterwards a week later - all in all, no silvering so chuffed with that. Anyone else does this with the undercarriage down with the stripes - put the stripes on the wheel flaps before putting the flaps on the model!
