A-29N Super Tucano details
About the model:
I completed this LEGO model some weeks ago however, I didn´t have a solution for the five blade propeller. I considered many LEGO options but they were either too fragile or too bulky to be workable.
So instead I decided to use a completely new option, a paper (well cardboard) propeller! Although not the best option, it works and it´s functionable for now. I´m considering other options (maybe a 3D print but we shall see).
The model features a retractable landing gear, external supports for bombs and weapons as well as antennas and a detailed cockpit for the crew of two.
It´s important to say that this isn´t the definitive look of the Super Tucano (the first aircrafts arrived just three days at the time of the writing of this text) so I only added the bare minimum of details.
I might add some details later on (I hope they don´t make a completely different paint scheme that forces me to build a completely new plane!)
So, I hope you like it! Don´t forget to leave a like and subscribe my Instagram page:
