 A cheap Tiffy...

But wit a superb decals sheet.

I've built Italeri's 1/72 Eurofighter F-2000A Typhoon,  an outated kit depictiong a prototype but with a superb decals sheet.

I upgraded the cockpit whit some leftover froa 3d decals sheet, replaced the ejection seat with another leftover from a  wrecked Revell's kit. also from revell's one are the exhaust, wingtips pods,  ir seeking. 

I also upgradet the kit in some point to get  a better  rapresentation of an operational Typhoon ( the kit depicts a prototype)

The whole kit was riveted, painted with lifecolor grey from the moder italian air force set and heavily weathered as a fighter of the "gigi tre osei",  18° Gruppo, 37th stormo, based in Trapani.
