stevej60 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hi folks first one for 2013.Academy,s tempest flown by Pierre Clostermann as she appeared just after the war ended.A simple and nicely detailed kit all for a fiver.no doubt I,ve made a few mistakes but it sits well with their typhoon which is near complete thanks for casting an eye over it. 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobster Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 (edited) Nice Tempest! I'm just finishing off a Heller 1:72 Tempest I started 20 yr's ago (must be a record long build!). The decals were terrible so I have invasion striped it and need to source some markings to finish. Rob. Edited January 6, 2014 by bobster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sgt.Squarehead Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I'd be well pleased with that on my shelf.....The old Heller Clostermann tempest (with the funky coloured codes) was one of my favourite kits as a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 Neat and tidy. I like it. But have the underwing landing lights been missed ior are they just very clear?/ Thanks Paul,you know I have just had to run up into the loft and see and yes I had done my usual trick of not using the kit parts and "dropped" in clear varnish.

jean Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Steve, that's a great Tempest you've done there. Very clean and precise. I personally prefer the Typhoon, shape-wise, but that does not detract from your great model. Good show JR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
