I finished my Airfix 1/48th Canberra as NZ6151 with the help of the A2Zee T.13 conversion. In truth I could easily have used the kit parts for most of it but the Airfix 'goldfish bow' is way to shallow and the whole panel it lives in is too flat. Thanks for looking  The nose pitot is crooked in the photos but I've fixed that.  |

That looks really good. I have the Airfix kit sitting on the couch at the moment as I alternatively sand and add putty to try and sort out the mismatch in the wing aero shape on the edge of the engine intakes.
Mine will be finished in very worn Rhodesian camouflage colours.

30sqnatc:
I had the same issues, but I was doing a model making demonstration at a local Help For Heroes show, so I had about 10 straight hours of filling and sanding. Talked to lots of people about how they built kits as kids but had since grown up!
Thanks for the kind comments folks.

Wow, nice work! Considering you had to do so much filling and sanding the results are very impressive!! Especially for a silver finish....amazing! Not a criticism but is there a fern missing off the stbd fuse?  Cant quite tell on my screen. Thanks for sharing your wonderful builds again. Cheers Anthony |
