Finished: 1:144 Hawker Typhoon

Hi folks,

Alongside my two recently completed Spitfires, I added another Typhoon to the collection - this being my fourth. Shown below next to one of the Spits. 



This was a 1:144 scale resin and metal battlefront kit I'd picked up 2nd hand quite a while ago. It had also languished on the painting pile for a long time, as I didn't desperately need another one. However, since I was painting the Spits I decided to get it done too. 

The addition of this model to the collection gives me two flights of two of these beasties for use in big games. Ideally, if I can find suitable models, I would switch two of these models over to being bomb armed, rather than having them all with rockets.  

I nabbed some of my Team Yankee flight stands to make these models a bit taller on the table. Decals are from the old BF aircraft kits.
