jenko Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 This is the the Revell kit. No real problems except for the cockpit glazing I think was for another aircraft, and construction was a bit hit and miss. But it might be me. They supply 3 fuel tanks but only markings for 2...hey ho. One of Revell's better kits. Please feel free to comment etc. Thanks for looking.

exdraken Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 great model! the Revell Eurofighter is imho the best out there of course it could be improved! I am not so sure about your bomb load... the GBU-24 is not really used on the Eurofighter, less so the RAF one! Storm Shadows would be more suitable for your build from what Revell provides. Alternativley Paveway IV or EPW-2 plus a targeting pod. Brimstone is also possible now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did try and find what should go on those pylons but the internet was not clear. We live and learn. Thanks for your comments and help.

Dick only if you want a more realistic model! if you are going to get nit-picky even more...you will notice that a F.2 could not carry them..... less so for markings of 2005.... (the F.2 and current Centurion FGR.4 look the same though save possible squadron markings and of course load out) http://www.warfare.today/2019/01/11/project-centurion-ensures-future-of-raf-typhoons/ ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbadbadge Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Ioh boy this look stunning, and looks fantastic with its load too. Such a cracking looking aircraft and model. Great work, I have one too which is awaiting its seat then I can call finished. May be I will finish now after seeing this. Thanks for sharing.

PhantomLover Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Great Typhoon! The paintjob looks very clean, like it should on such a modern jet, and I love the way you made the exhausts shine! Kind regards, Gerben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Riot Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Lovely looking Typhoon that, nice to see one in full squadron markings too - better than the RAF seem to manage! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deano353 Posted October 15, 2020 Share Posted October 15, 2020 Looks great, I've made two of these in the past and have their Bronze Tiger Luftwaffe one in the stash. I think it's a pretty good kit with the exception of the intake engineering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
29Triplex Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) Excellent build in the Best (IMHO) Squadron markings 👍 Edited October 21, 2020 by 29Triplex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
