The Tempest and Typhoon are some of my alltime favourites and you certainly have done them justice! :goodjob:

A fine model of a fine plane.

I've been thinking a lot about getting one of the 1/32 Special Hobby Tempest's myself, and your model have convinced me.

Now - how do I convince my bankaccount?..... :hmmm:

Cheers :bye:

Congratulations on a magnificent build, and tribute to your relative. I have this kit, and I must say it is one of the most ill-fitting kits, especially the wing, and the fuselage/nose joint is a real challenge. I am thankful that you posted so many excellent pix because they will help me crack on with building my Tempest V. Congratulations again.
