Will be watching this with a lot of interest! I believe this to be a great little kit as well. Have fun!

That's the best airliner i've ever seen! Fantastic job
I'll second that! Absolutely amazing!

Absolute cracker!

She looks fantastic mate, always nice to see a good, clean Spit!

Absolutely amazing work, it looks so real!! Can't even begin to imagine how to draw something like this up! Beautiful subject as well. Looking at the CAD pics it has really struck me what incredible skills it is to have designed an aircraft like this before the aid of computers, presumably by hand on a drawing board with a ruler and pencil!

Another cracking build on the way! Enjoying watching it again!

great little Sea Harrier, congratulations mate!
-
Stunning build

Inspirational! You've absolutely nailed it! I love the Lancaster as my Grandad was a Lancaster pilot in WW2. I keep putting off making a Lancaster until I feel I've got good enough to do one justice! A great tribute to the fallen men, congratulations again!

Your opinion is as valid as everyone else's.....its your hobby too!
Indeed! I guess what I'm trying to say is that to my inexperienced eye, the panel lines look fine, certainly a lot more refined than some other airfix 1/72 kits. This kit looks a little gem

Got this kit today, and for me it looks absolutely excellent. There's loads of detail there, and for me the panel lines look fine. They are over scale, no doubt about that (I'd guess most panel lines would be in 1/72?), and they are heavier than, say, my Italeri Sea Harrier/Gr.3, but they are certainly miles better than the Airfix BF.110 and Shar's that I have. I'm sure if they are a bit heavy for your liking then a couple of coats of primer will help, and if you're brush painting I'd guess the panel lines are ideal. I'm certainly no expert, and I'm definitely not saying anyone's opinion is incorrect, they are probably more valid than mine! Just saying it looks an absolutely great kit and well worth the cost, so I wouldn't worry about the panel lines. The only thing with mine is there is a really nasty ejector pin mark inside the cockpit which will be a pain to get out, but if that's the only problem, I'll be very happy! I'll do a build thread when I get round to building it (and you all will be able to see the panel lines are the least of my problems
).

it has been great to watch! You've also built a whole Lancaster masterfully in about the same amount of time it takes me to unblock and setup my airbrush!

Absolute cracker!!

This thread keeps getting better and better! Great work so far!

Cracker! You've nailed!

Sure I've seen this somewhere before...
looks amazing, great job! -
Thanks guys! The model is all together and ready for priming. When I've to some paint down I'll get some more pics up. Thanks for the encouragement
-
I guess the whole thing just comes down to opinion. Just my opinion, but I think the model looks incredible. I love the entire finish, including the panel lines. I'd be extremely proud to have a model half that good, but that is just my opinion, and not that valuable
many congratulations again!-
