Hello Dears, However, I cannot start a WiP for any of my running projects. I always have "side projects", kind of kits that are processing at the pace of "an asthmatic snail with a bad limb" thank to the martian for the sentence !! I participate to the researches about 2 Lancasters wrecks in my vicinity, after the second excavation, I decided to start mine as a Ton up Lanc. Here's the well known kit As a tail sitter, she do not need ballast but for the sake of the Lancaster spirit, I will include a bit from ED800 and PD306 in this kit. I will depict "Phantom of the Ruhr" I also really like the F-4 so it is a double shot here ! Knowing that the engine nacelles are flawed, I bought some aftermarket parts, like these I make a big mistake since I wanted to engrave the kit, I should have this done on the wing only Since on the fuselage, the riveting stand proud , too late once it is open one just have to carryin' on !! The flaps are cut because I will drop it a bit, Eduard interior parts are great, even if it will not be really visible once the fuselage is closed. Now, Dears, I have a question, Belcher bits give us differents air intakes for the engine nacelles But when I look surviving Lanc, I did'nt see differences in between inboard and outboard air intakes ??? Should I rectify this ?? And which one is the good one ?? Large or small ?? I will post sometime on this thread, but it will not go faster, For now, I'm preparing 2 RFI's Thanks for watching, Ok Spad, here's my Lancaster, will not be as good as your Bloody Parylyzer !! Sincerely. Corsaircorp

Here we go with a Lancaster Bomber - using Eduards photoetch for the interior but otherwise will be out the box which being a Tamiya means its will all go together perfectly. Hopefully this one will stand out but there's a lot of these about at the moment so got my work cut out I think! Here's progress - three evenings work so far but so far so good, will be closing it up tonight all going as planned. I've come the conclusion there's no 'correct' interior, some were black and some green, I figure the pale green makes it easier to see whats in there once finished?
