**** DONE: 1/48 Typhoon Mk.1B RCAF 143 16 Wing Comm 1944 Commonwealth GB

Nice bit of work my friend, glad to see you're able to do a bit.
 
That looks great. I haven't thought of doing it that way but it makes sense. :)
 
I thought I would put a core clear picture of the control surfaces mods. I used a small round file to make the concave in the vertical and horizontal stabs. then used half of a piece of round sprue for the elevators and rudder. I used the sprue coz the glue hold it firmer than using styrene and super glue.

Top stuff mate.
 
I think I have gone bonkers. Am putting hinge plates in. Just cut a slot, stuck in some of the little flat brand tag from the sprue, glued it in and filed down to fit after it set.
