1/48 Hasegawa Hawker Typhoon Mk Ib

by Laurent Boildieu

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

 

This aircraft was the plane of The Wing Commander J.R. Baldwin in November 1944. Armed with rockets, this plane was flown by the commander of the 146 Wing which was based in Belgium, between October and November 1944. Perhaps the best typhoon pilot....Baldwin finished the war with 15 ariel victories.

I used the Hasegawa kit in 1/48th scale.  I used Aeromaster decals and an Eduard set to improve the details.  Like usual, I used Lifecolor acrylic paints.
