1/72 Academy Typhoons

A Pair of Tiffies

--------------------

 

We built these 1/72 Academy Typhoons and used Arrow Graphics decals and Squadron canopies.  Ken built his as Wing Commander R. Davidson Typhoon from 143 Wing and mine was built as "Pulverizer" from 440 Sqn.  I added the 500 pd bombs that I used from the spares box.  We both live on the same street and while picking up our kids from school, we  started talking about models.  We both had the Typhoon kits in our stash and decided to have a mini group build.

Ken and I had fun building these Typhoons and learned a few things from each others build. We are now building a pair of P-51B/C's.
