Zhou Kun Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 (edited) 1/48 Short Tucano converted from hobbyboss EMB-312. The following parts are modified: 1\ the original three blade is converted into a four blade propeller 2\ jet pipes are moved to lower front fuselage 3\ the nose section is slightly modified to represent a smoother cross section on the Short Tucano rather than Embraer Tucano 4\ Added a frame and detonation cord to the original canopy 5\ Added the ventral airbrake, leaving it at closed position Edited February 4, 2019 by Zhou Kun Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stephen Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Seriously nice finish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
barkin mad Posted February 5, 2019 Share Posted February 5, 2019 That's pretty good, you would be hard pushed to know it wasn't a correct Shorts Tucano kit. Though one thing if I may, those 2 large u/c doors shut after the u/c drops. ----------------------- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
