WiP Hawker Typhoon Mk1B (AH)

About time we got pilots that look like they have been fed instead of the previous skinny underfed pilots.


Really looking forward to this one.
 
Are there likely to be variants? Three-blade as well as four-blade props? Bombphoon as well as Rockphoon??

Looks great Bazz! As always I really love your cockpits and your pilots have always been among the best. So I'm really surprised to see an improved version and am curious to see it in virtual reality......

And as always I appreaciate the effort you put in (affordable) models in my League.

Cheers,
Huub
 
Baz : The pilot has a name you know. Oxnard Willfred Featherstonehaugh III .

He comes from a famous lineage of aristocratic fighting men dating back to Richard the lionheart days. Sure there was that 'scandal' in the family when Roderick " the mediocre" Featherstonehaugh decided to support Oliver Cromwell but Oxnard here has redeemed the good name of the family. To be referred as "just the AH new RAF pilot" is a little rough. :unitedkingdom: :biggrin-new:

... too little :guinness: and too little :sleeping:
 
And let's not forget Baron Roger "the one-eyed,one armed,one legged" who was responsible for the downfall and eventual defeat of Ragnar Letsavalaf and his warring hordes 400 years earlier. What a family indeed.:engel016:
 
Well we have this one from the 440 and a few other schemes..:engel016:

Thanks Huub, we build for more than FS product these days so techniques and method have had to change to make models more adaptable and multi-purpose. :engel016:

Even they look like body-builders if you remember those undernourished, flat-chested turnip heads with bulging eyes who flew for Airfix in the early days.

In that case, the readme should include a guide to the correct pronunciation of this distinguished name or the Colonials will only get it wrong again. It's Fanshaw don't you know. Must keep these things correct, what what!
 
Probly don't want us Aussies having a crack at his name, shorten it to something along the lines of "that pommy b.." you get the point :a1310:
