Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4 Revell 1/48


Recommended Posts

This is my Eurofighter Typhoon FGR4 Revell 1/48 - aircraft from 29th squadron RAF in paintwork in honor of the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain. The scheme of camuflage is the same as the Hawker Hurricane from 249 squadron.

In general, I built it out of the box. I made the exhaust of the APU, added wires and tube lines in gear bays and on landing gears. And I used custom decals and "Removes" from Eduard

No pictures for me either. Tried both Chrome and Edge.

 

I'm sorry folks.

I used Google Photos links. Now I'll try to repair everything

To be honest I was never really into that scheme, even after seeing the above pair fly past my modelling window when I lived in Beaconsfield. But the more I see such fantastic builds as these the more I am genuinely warming to it. Bravo ilius! 👍

Very Nice build,

I should point out that RAF Typhoons do not carry Sidewinders or Paveway III bombs!

 

Selwyn

Selwyn, thanks for Your clarification. I'm not the Typhoons specialist. I only followed the instruction for the model. So, I'll must change the weapons in future.

Great job on the Typhoon, love the intake cover. Is it home made? Now how about a Hurricane to go with it?

 

Thanks mackem01

Make the Hurricane?! Hmm... Good idea, why not? 

Intake cover - it's handmade )) I took the foil cover from a choсolate bar and shape it for intake cover, and painted it Tamiya red enamel

Your model is stunning, I've found this scheme fascinating since I saw it on the 1:72 Revell box. Did you have any issues with your decals? I started this kit early last year and had some major silvering on the decals which, alongside the fit issues of this kit, saw me abandoning it for another time. 

Cheers

Thank you RiotRolo

I had a Revell kit with standard grey scheme decals. So, I had to order custom decals for this variant from one modeller. He printed it on a very thin decal paper.

Stencil decals I used from the Revell kit. And finally I used decalfix from Zip-market for all decals and I didn't have silvering problem
You can make same. Or, You can searching decals from Caracal

Thanks mate, perhaps when I decide to come back to it I'll use the kit stencils too, as these were what I had an issue with. I've actually just been looking at mine though and there are a number of rough patches so im guessing I was being a bit lazy before applying decals 😅
