Well done, that is a seriously nice looking model of what is definitely my favourite aircraft :wub: Very good work sir :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout: :shoutout:

Funnily enough, I did exactly the same thing when I built the Monogram kit - I left the stick and the lower cockpit assembly on the bench... :headslap:

LOL…. thank you for the kind words. I’ll admit, that is the first time I forgot to install the control stick in all the years of building aircraft model kits.

She turned out great! :shoutout: My only Typhoon is the old Monogram kit. Tom, I read that you need masks for a He-111. If that's a 1/48 model, this should work. I used their services on my Monogram Mosquito and they worked perfectly. You can order this set from them, and they will custom-make masks for any kit that you may have; read about their custom-mask service on their website.

Hey, I left some pics of their masks on your Typhoon WIP thread, Tom! :grin:
