Mancunian airman Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) I look forward to the 48th Lancaster from HK, I hope they make a few corrections as they downsize the 32nd like what they did with the B17 . . . . .

And maybe the rescribe it as Italeri did with their Do24 in 1/72 The last edition (2009) already did have some extra’s added like a new turret and blisters... Now I wil stop with this subject as this is still a 1/32 HK thread 🧵🤫 cheers, Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will prove a popular option for the kit particularly the bulge bomb doors, and spur on the market for decals of those squadrons that carried the bomb, 9 & 617 Squadrons I believe. The bulge bomb doors should be popular with the Canadians with their 8000Ib 'er . . . . Ian Edited October 28, 2020 by Mancunian airman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Work In Progress Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Having paid for their own tooling, why would they pay for someone else's directly competing tooling? It would be the worst business sense ever, except if they could get it cheap to destroy it and prevent it ever competing against them, and I doubt anyone here would want that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homebee Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 From Resin2detail Source: https://www.facebook.com/RESIN2detail/posts/1647877438736335 Quote Hello! I wanted to share some renders and test shots of the 1/32 Avro Lancaster pilot's seat. Overall, I am very happy with how this is turning out. I still need to double-check measurements and work out some tweaks with the build supports, but hope to get those taken care of very soon. On that note. if any of my followers has the HK kit seat, please PM me. I would like to confirm the measurements to ensure that everything with the design is in sync Assuming the last little bits are ironed out quickly, we're on schedule for release this week. I expect the price to be somewhere around $19.99 USD per set and available in the R2D shop and on Ebay. Anyway, I hope you like!

Hi Homebee, just about to start my HK 1/32 Lanc nose art kit. AM IP on the way, was looking at this seat, steep price on Ebay and perhaps needs a lot of work to make it look like that? I'm not being dismissive or anything, it looks fantastic in finished state, but comes as a 3d print type thing if its same seat I'm thinking on and delivered price is £25+ Was looking for a quick build for this, quick confidence build, but I think the seat alone would be more work than entire kit? Looks amazing, but out my league I'm sorry to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
One 48 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Yikes, just bought a 1/32 HK Dambuster Lancaster on Ebay for £343.90 delivered, been debating with myself for two hours the pro's and cons of the idea ... but I'm impulsive and once the root of a thought gets into my head ... it becomes inevitable! Here is me priding myself on selling off most of my 1/32 stash to concentrate on 1/48, have the 1/32 HK Nose art kit already that I thought was a rare treat into this scale and am due to start that tomorrow now bench is clear and I know HK will have a 1/48 Lanc out soon and will have one of those too ... but I've had nothing on my thoughts but Lancaster's for days now. Been trying to justify this outlandish purchase with several reasons, live near RAF Lossiemouth, once home of 617, I Iove Lancasters, seen the BoBM Lanc a few times at air shows in the past ... had promised myself a WnW 1/32 Lanc when they came out, but we all know that's extremely unlikely now, we only live once and sometimes you need to go where your heart tells you instead of what the brain says ... so yeah, chuffed to bits ... I'm a happy bunny again Off to watch The Dambuster's now with a warm fuzzy feeling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Never think you have to justify to yourself buying something like that, that's what I tell myself Justifying buying it to the other half is another matter, which normally ends up just as expensive I find 🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell her shes won an 350£ shopping spree. You can live with the fact you've got a killer model and this is your penance. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
