Derek B Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Good spot Thierry Whether this really is a Trumpeter Hawker Typhoon cockpit test shot or not still remains to be seen? Cheers Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrahamF Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Good spot Thierry Whether this really is a Trumpeter Hawker Typhoon cockpit test shot or not still remains to be seen? Cheers Derek What interests me is that this is highly detailed and would require having the real thing on hand to look at, how would you know what is buried in the top or bottom of a napier sabre? photos just dont do it all. I wonder considering there is only one Typhoon left [ and thats got dodgy home made cowlings] Trumpeter would produce a kit without ever seeing the real thing?

blackbetty Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 typhoon ? all i can see is a IL-2, an apache , a mig 23, a buccanneer(yesssss? ), a jaguar (yesssss again ), a su 25, a stuka, in no particular order... and some kind of chinese eurofighter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Kevin Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 typhoon ?all i can see is a IL-2, an apache , a mig 23, a buccanneer(yesssss? ), a jaguar (yesssss again ), a su 25, a stuka, in no particular order... and some kind of chinese eurofighter Karl, there were 3 or 4 shots that were definitely the cockpit, engine and intake interior sections of a Hawker Typhoon. But no actual airframe. It really does look Mr Song's Photobucket album! Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotsman Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Well what ever that Helo is , it isn't an apache , looks like is a model of a Chinese design I'm not famliar with As for the rest of the modelling pics , most of them have been seen over the last few months , obly the Helo and the Typhoon pit are really new , but man i'd forgotten how good than Buccaneer looks!

GrahamF Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Anyone agree that this is at 1:24 scale when you compare it to the model that creeps into one shot? Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derek B Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Anyone agree that this is at 1:24 scale when you compare it to the model that creeps into one shot? Graham Difficult to tell really Graham, as there is no real scale reference to compare with directly? As for the level of detail on the engine, A. L. Bentley's drawings would provide as much detail as they could wish for, so it does not surpise me overly. Derek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Colvin Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 A 1/24th scale tiffy.... now that would be tough!!!! They listed a 1/24 Stuka at one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
