Kit Review
The Italeri tooling is by far the most accurate of all the brands and thus would make a good basis for all Canberra variants, including the British and American variants. The fuselage, wings, tailplane, and undercarriage could all be used as the core, adding and substituting parts for specific versions as required. The High Planes kits are based on the original Italeri tooling, so it would not be necessary to replace relevant components, but for all other brands and/or variants this is suggested.
 
Decal Review
Hats off to Model Alliance for an absolutely sterling effort with the release of a series of decals sheets covering a most diverse range of subjects. About bloody time. At long last the modeller can now reproduce schemes previously only dreamt of, and the Canberra finally gets the kind of recognition it deserves in terms of marking options. Another gap plugged!
