Looks like a fairly simple kit in the fact that it looks like a VERY easy assembly. That interior looks like it consists of pretty much 4 parts total. Looks to be coming together rather quickly and well at that.

Got to rub down some filler I've only just done and fit the canopy and we are ready to hit the spray booth again

That putty-looking substance you put in the nose, is that for weight? If so, what material is it?
Looks like a solid start on this!

It's white tac, same as blue tac but less sticky, if you leave this stuff it goes really hard until you manipulate it to make it soft again

Your Typhoon is looking right sharp there. Appears as though everything is fitting decently. Nothing wrong with straight forward and simple and your doing a fine job with it.

I love these fast builds, no chance of loosing interest in them. I've got a few more 1/72 jets

I really like how this is turning out for you. Looks clean and sharp. I completely agree with you on having some 1/72 jets in the stash for keeping the interest and mojo going. Well done.

I'm MORE than sure that this one is gonna turn out A-OK Ian. Lookin' good so far bud.

Not many panel lines so I opted for a MIG pin wash instead of the Flory wash When this is dry I'll give it a tiny bit of streaking to the wings and mat coat, job done

With every update she's looking better and better Ian. I was just looking at the canopy frame and those edges look pretty dang clean for the scale. Model on brother.....looking forward to more.....

It is nice and crisp, I didn't think there could be much fun in a little kit like this
