Paolo6691 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi all I am trying to draw some decals for the 37th Stormo Typhoons of the Italian air force. I got some good photo references of the "strali" below the cockpit and of the checks on the tail, but all the pics I got of the stork are a little too far away or taken quite at an angle. It would be a big help for me if you can post close ups of the stork if you have any. Thanks Cheers Paolo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobski Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 (edited) The Olimp Typhoon intakes set is out on Hannants, mine just arrived. Stephen Be wary of Olimp's sets. Their weapons are good but their exhausts don't fit at all. They're so big that I can't see how it would be possible to get them to fit.

spike7451 Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 When is a laser guided bomb not a laser guided bomb?.... When it's an Air Data Gathering Bomb.. 2 x 1000lb data gathering bombs (along with a ride-along PWII 'pylon filler') in PWII role flying Typhoon environmental trails. Note the bolt-on nose cones. Engineered by Portsmouth Aviation Ltd, instrumented by Cranfeild Aerospace. (With thanks to my very old mate Jez B for the pics...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boros Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I have question, how is color AIM-120 and AIM-132 transferred by Typhoon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobski Posted October 5, 2013 Author Share Posted October 5, 2013 AIM-120 is FS 36375, the same as on US jets. ASRAAM is Light Aircraft Grey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Cheers Paolo Hi All Thanks to the very kind contribution of a fellow britmodeller (Thanks Guillaume) I progressed quite a lot on my project to create a set decals for 37 stormo Typhoons, the next step would be to find the right dimension for the decals. I learn a lot in the process and I would love to be able to also fill a couple of other holes in AMI Typhoon line-up 36 stormo 12 and 10 groups and 20 groups (I would love to have a Typhoon with the lion head) If you have pictures that may be useful I will be very grateful if you can send them to me, and I will credit you as source. Thanks Paolo P.s. Mods please move my message if you think it is not the right place Edited October 25, 2013 by Paolo6691 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob P Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 A question for those that know, how long before we see a (41Sqn?) Typhoon carrying PW IV, Storm Shadow or Brimstone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobski Posted March 4, 2014 Author Share Posted March 4, 2014 A question for those that know, how long before we see a (41Sqn?) Typhoon carrying PW IV, Storm Shadow or Brimstone? Not something that can be discussed on here. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob P Posted March 4, 2014 Share Posted March 4, 2014 No worries Bobski, was just figuring loads for my fleet (wanted something different). PW IV I figure wont be long, 17 have been seen with them already. I know trials of Storm Shadow are being carried out in Italy. As for Brimstone, according to the MBDA website, isn't set for integration until 2020 (which I'm amazed at). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spook300Bass Posted April 8, 2014 Share Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Hi All,I'm newly returned to modelling after nearly 40 years, so effectively a complete novice.Frankly I'm gobsmacked by the changes in detail and accuracy that is available nowadays .I've just bought a 1:48 Revell Twin Seat Typhoon, which I intend to build after I've had some practice on a few simpler models.The fact that the decals come in those of my old Squadron appealed to me,(what I'm thinking of is building a collection of aircraft from the squadron "Through the ages").Just wondered if I can get any advice on where to go for suitable resin upgrade parts, particularly cockpit, ejection seats and pilot figures, although any advice on building this particular kit would be gratefully received. Edited April 8, 2014 by Spook300Bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobski Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 There is no replacement cockpit for the twin-seat Typhoon, nor are there any resin seats in 1/48 as far as I'm aware. With some careful painting the kit parts come out really well, and the seats only really need some harnesses adding to them. Eduard do photo-etch sets for these, but make sure you get the ones for the Revell kit. As for build advice, the best advice is to take your time. The fit in some areas is tricky, but with care it can be built into a superb model. Put a WIP in the Work-in-Progress forum, I'd love to see how you get on :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pittnuma Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Does anyone have a picture of the access point for the ground power unit, I need to know which access hatch the gpu is attached to if they are not using an apu to start with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngstROM Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Just a note on the LITENING III LDP: Wolfpack Design make 1/48 versions for F-16 (48078) and F/A-18 (48079); the latter is in the configuration shown here. http://www.wolfpack-d.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobski Posted June 20, 2014 Author Share Posted June 20, 2014 ASRAAM is Light Aircraft Grey, which is Humbrol 166. AMRAAM is FS 36375, which is Humbrol 127. Revell don't do either of these greys as standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
