Hi comrades!

Undercarriage done

But bad representation of the mudguard by Classic Airframes (too long) and my placing error gave the wrong appearance of the front leg

So, I decided to replace the wheels with much better ResKit resin, to cut the appropriate mudguards from brass and to drill the forward leg and put brass axe in

And the question, @canberra kid, does this turbine faces orientation is representative? Thanks a lot!

  • cema_ga changed the title to Canberra T.17 1/48 Classic Airframes - Most of the decals on, need help with the stencils 28/05/2019

Hi comrades!

front undercarriage wheels replaced, biggest decals on. Now looks less monotonic...

Problems so far with the decals are unreadable cautions on those two places on the nose:

Wow, thank You so much!

No problem my friend, I'm not too surprised that you can't find decals to match, good as the Model Alliance stencil sheet is it hasn't got everything.

Hi comrades!

Weathered. Only need to add antennas&navigation lights (some of them scratched), and some final bits like wingtip tanks and front wheel doors.
