Thanks XJ

Someone must have a panel line ref SOMEWHERE?

Got Tiffys ready to roll, but not until panel lines are completed

Kev

Is the white nosed Tiffy a training aircraft?

I'll see if I have some panel lines for the Typhoon.

White nosed typhoon should be only seen on mk1b car door version.
It was a try in 1942 before the identification strip (not no be confused with the invasion strip put in 1944).

I can post some pannel lines tonight but due to assimetric mapping of the sides of the fuselage i gave up my typhoon skin some time ago ...

I'll perhaps kick my lazy but to end the pulverizer IV skin  :p

For the version we have the spinner should be black the sky version was at the very end of WWII if i'm not mistaken :)

for 4 bladed aircrafts, I've not seen any with a sky spinner ... yet :)

Yup your right straffo, but as we only have a Typhoon listed and the only difference really is the panel layout for the car door version it shouldn't be a problem.
White nose was an attempt to distinguish them from FW190s, along with lower ID stripes (not D-Day) stripes.
The spinner isn't sky, its white. Seen references with sky spinners as early as 1943. But have also seen black, red, yellow and in one case a blue spinner.
Would welcome your panel lines though staffo or replicant , can't seem to find any decent ref material on the web.

My scanner at home is broke I'll post some tomorrow.

I've 2 (and sadly only 2) different sources for panel lines :
squadron signal : Typhoon/Tempest in action n°102
Osprey : Typhoon and Tempest aces of WW2.

And this 2 sources have errors when comparing to war picture ...

PLUS THIS LAZY FURBALL NEVAR POSTED ME THE PICT. HE PROMISED TO DO !
Ring him Nexx please  :)
