Daz's baby Lancaster ***FINISHED***

Post by DazDaMan »

In the event that the Dambuster Lancaster gets the better of me, or time marches on too quickly for me to get much done with it, I will add a newly-delivered Revell 1/144th scale Lancaster Mk.I to the GB.

Daz

Is this a new mould or something they picked up from Crown or AModel?

No idea, but I'll post photos of the kit once the GB kicks off.

Having seen Splash's 1/144 job, it looks like the same kit.

Which is good, because I hope mine will turn out half as good!

It's up next, after the Spitfires.

I'm enjoying my build the kit has a bit of flash but assembly is quick and easy.

Good luck and have fun, I have faith that yours will turn out better than mine as I have not spent much time on mine.

OK, now that I've got the Spitfires out of the way, I can start on this one!

I've ordered a new set of decals from eBay so that Splash and I don't end up with identical models! :-D
