Hello Camaradas, this is my last project a T 27 TUCANO.  This model is a Premiere 1/72 Short Tucano, I made some modifications as a reduce the four propeller to three, change the exhaust near to the propeller and made a new air intake.

The shark mouth is hand painted, I tried to represent an aircraft used by the Peruvian Air Force during the Cenepa War with Ecuador during the beginning of 1995. Most of the Peruvian Tucanos had a camouflage gray belly but for this ocation a few number was changed for black.

After many years this is my second Peruvian Tucano, I wish you can enjoy this kit.

Thanks and best regards to everyone on ARC.
