My Canberra

Postby Ben » Wed Jun 06, 2012 10:28 pm

I've nearly finished assembling my airfix model of a Canberra B (1) 8 and want to paint it in rasberry ripple.
Does anyone have any pictures of Canberra bombers in rasberry ripple that I could go by.

I don't Ben tho' MOD may have - or Google images could be a good place to start.

Hope you post photos when it's finished.

Well I'm afraid that they dont help that much since my model doesn't have a bubble canopy, it has a offset canopy.
But thanks anyway.

I can't find any photos for B(1)B in RR colours on the net and Airliners.net isn't showing any either, tho' I did find decals for the B(1)B

How big a carrier would that have needed? :-o
