Post-war Lancaster Colour Schemes section of Avro Lancaster in Military Service 1945-1965 by Martin Derry and Neil Robinson describes as follows; Initially the Lancasters were painted in a factory-applied overall dark royal blue scheme with Aéronavale cocardes applied to all six positions, each narrowly outlined in yellow with a black anchor superimposed.

The Flight Manual instructs to set the WING SWEEP MODE switch to BOMB (55 deg. sweep) after landing and then set the EMERGENCY WING SWEEP handle to OV SW (68 deg. sweep) finally move the EMERGENCY WING SWEEP handle full aft to 75 deg. Therefore, normal wing sweep in the parked position is 75 deg, but it can be changed if necessary. Jun in Tokyo https://www.flickr.com/photos/horaburo/albums/72157634239368919

I painted my Finemolds kit strictly in accordance with the kit instructions. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=2057016681065779&set=pcb.2057020624398718 Jun in Tokyo

Kamikaze was painted silver and blue. The best color reference is the instruction sheet of the Finemolds kit. https://www.scalemates.com/products/img/3/4/0/1162340-23-instructions.pdf Jun in Tokyo https://www.flickr.com/photos/horaburo/50057645552/in/album-72157692034513944/

The Mk. I does not have the identification lamps, but the Mk. II has them. The upward identification lamp is mounted at the top of the fuselage just forward of the fin, and the downward lamps is in the underside of the fuselage just forward of the service hatch. No need to add the identification lamps to the Airfix kit which depicts the Mk. I. Jun in Tokyo https://www.flickr.com/photos/horaburo/8372406569/in/album-72157632492710747/

Compared the wings of the B-18 and DC-3 by placing a station diagram of the B-18 and the most reliable DC-3 drawing what I have in the same scale. https://rara.jp/image_view/3d903c17953f29b80d1988aa4f65586a/1005624792 As you see the center sections, Station 0 to 142, are the same except for the root fillet and the outer wings look the same up to Station 338.75 which is a breaking point of the wing tip. So you can use the DC-3 wings with the each wing tip shortened by 11.7 mm. Jun in Tokyo https://www.flickr.com/photos/horaburo/albums

The upper wing dihedral is nil, the lower wing dihedral is 5 degree. https://rara.jp/image_view/bfa291f8d1f6666eca577c11e165a7e0/1005615545 Jun in Tokyo https://www.flickr.com/photos/horaburo/albums
