TimJ's 'normal' Lanc

As there are already examples of Dambuster and Grand Slam Airfix Lancs being built I thought I'd build my B.III from the V-E Day set. I'll post sprue shots, etc. in the morning.

I haven't built anything this big for ages so I'm looking forward to it.

Welcome to the build, Tim...I think that the size aspect (while, of course, not everything!) has attracted a lot of people to this build...looking forward you seeing you kick off...

As promised, here are the sprue shots.

I should be making a start later today.

Being from the States I don't have the same affinity for the Lancaster most of you guys have but I do love seeing them build. Waiting with anticipation...

Its a nice kit Tim and builds very well,i have only built the Dam Buster but that went together very well.Look forward to your build,

I've made a start by assembling the wings, outer engines, interior and tailplanes/fins.

It's all gone together well so far, now I need to get the turrets built and painted.

Good start Tim,the rear gun barrels are a bit fiddly to get lined up but apart from that they go together fairly well.

How's the build going Tim? any progress to share?

Sorry about the lack of progress but my Mum was taken into hospital o the 14th of Feb and sadly she passed away last Sunday so I haven't had much time for modelling.

That's very sad news and I can only join the others above, who probably know you quite well, in offering my condolences.

Best wishes
