Here's a look at Airfix's 1:72 Canberra - very much a scaled-down version of their earlier quarterscale kit.

I've got an almost finished B(I).8, just need for the weather to improve so I can go outside and spray the silver.

Its not a bad kit, the parts are a bit thick in places and the fit varies (both points especially round the engines), its the Paschendelle trench-lines on the fuselage and rudder that spoil it for me (especially if doing a silver finish like I am). I've spent the most time on this kit filling them in. You can get away with them a lot easier on a camo finish.
