This is the old
Revell kit. Although the panel lines are raised, the rivets are wonderfully
represented in plastic. No aftermarket goods were used either in the cockpit or
the engine. Everything was scratchbuilt, including the flap detail. Certain
panels were opened around the engine bay and the cockpit, while the flaps were
repositioned in the lower position. Their entire inner detail was made of
plastic card and lead wire. The model was airbrushed with Humbrol enamel paints,
depicting a Typhoon of the European theatre and was very slightly weathered
compared to other models I've built.

maybe???
