1/350 Airfix S.S. Canberra

This is my 1/350 S.S. Canberra. The kit itself is molded in white plastic and comes with decals for the markings on the pool area and the words on the ship.

The fit is good, except on the nose, where there is a lot of adjusting you have to do. As you can see, this kit was not painted and poorly made.  This is because I made it 3 years ago, when I wasn't experienced and didn't have any putty or sanding paper or anything like that. I used Tamiya paints to paint the model, which took a lot of patience because there is so much detail on the floors. 

Hope you enjoy the review! I advise you buy this kit since comes out very well if you put some work in it.
