Great work Jason, I love the Alpha Canberra, but there have been a suprisingly small number of repaints for her.

From one Canberra painter to another - well done and keep up the good work. It's nice seeing these done, as I did consider the Alphasim version at the time when I started, but the Holker model was good enough and freeware at that.

If you get hold of the Aviation Workshop 'Profiles 7 Bomber Canopy Variants' (assuming you haven't already) you'll be able to knock out a LOT of paints for the old girl :wink:

Heheh, I think I got half of the flipping Canberra airforce in that first batch, but there are plenty more out there to be covered. I'm actually planning out which of the remaining :wink: ones there are for Paul's incoming wave of models. Probably going to do some foreign birds, either way, it looks like the Cranberry race is on between me and Jason :lol:
