Airfix 1:72 Jubilee Tucano

[roconnell]

Hi folks, have posted this on the facebook page a couple of weeks back but thought I should finally post here for the rest of folk to see.

As my little man was born the year of the Queens Diamond Jubilee I thought it fitting to build him this for his shelf as a keep sake.

Really enjoyed this one and the decals where super!

Its now well out of reach on his shelf and can quite honestly say its the only aircraft model SWMBO has been interested in whilst being built...let alone the only one on display in the house!

That looks superb rich , the decals must have been a bit tricky . The paint job and build is fantastic , i've been thinking about getting one of the airfix tucanos for a while now , I originally wanted to do the black one -but now i'm not sure!! 10 /10 for this one , cheers tony

Rich, that is a brilliant model...in more ways than one!

First class build and very well done on the decals, really nice.

And what a nice keepsake both for you, and later on, the little fella....
