Canberra TP52 wip
In the cockpit only some wires and sheet were added
Painted in black and drybrushed with grey, white and silver.
AMP offers nice etched parts.
Etched parts are also used for the seat belts.
I had to grind parts of the clear part to get it smooth to the fuselage.
Canopy and fuselage are sanded, the fit was very good, only a little putty and Mr.Surfacer were needed.
Wing halfs fits very well, the engine parts needs some work.
Position lights wer new build using some clesr sprue.
To give the wing-fuselage-connection more stability, I drilled 2mm holes and glued in a piece of plastic rod.
Put some iron balls from a ball bearing for the weight balance of the Canberra.
About 10 gr were needed.
Fixed it with some wood glue.
The Airframe is nearly completed and ready for a first cote of primer.
Engine inlets and exhausts were painted with Alclad.
The swedish Canberra shows an antenna behind the cockpit instead of the two small windows.
I build a frame from Evergreen and used Mr.Surfacer for the surface of the antenna.
Some details were added to the wing tanks.
Etched parts from the kit.
Scratched antennas.
First paint coat, Tamiya xf-18.
First layer of silver shows some faults in the surface.
After a bit of putty and some sanding the second layer looks much better.
Pitot probe made from three different injection needles.
Dacals and detail painting done.
The undercarriage of the TP52 was painted black like the wheel bays.
Wheels from RESKIT and as comparsion the kit parts.
It´s done, only some work on the base is needed.
