Lancasterbuild Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Evenin' chaps, very new here. I'm building the Hachette Lanc, which, as you'll see from my profile, is a replica of Dave Fellowes' O for OBOE. Here's a link to the set. It's VERY detailed and I'm making her as a VET Lanc, and not the Post-War type.

Spookytooth Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 That sir is damn good, impressive to say the least. This I will have to follow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancasterbuild Posted October 16, 2013 Author Share Posted October 16, 2013 Cheers guys, like the quick response Now the nights are drawing-in, the project will pick-up pace. The kit does NOT come with the Radio Ops equipment, so that's the next project. I'm planning to just skin one side as the interior detailing is being enhanced. Thanks again fellas!

jenko Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 (edited) Watching this with interest as I used to work with a guy called Ken De la Mare who Dave served with from 460 days at Binbrook. Cracking build by the way. :thumbsup2: Edited October 16, 2013 by jenko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crobinsonh Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Fabulous build. I have one of these but I never got the rear turret transparency - every time they sent it trough it was broken in the same place in the packaging to add insult to injury they charged me for everyone replacement that was sent. In the end I gave up with them. How have you found the instructions and the build? Any areas to watch out for? One of these days I would like to do a duo of the Hunted (Lanc 1/32nd) and the Hunter (ZM He-219). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody37 Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 OMG, I keep getting surprised on Britmodeller by the amazing work that some people produce. This is one of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianthemodeller Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 That is quite superb! Would you mind if I saved the pics to my ipad to use as reference for my 1/72 build? I give my word that they wouldn't be used for any commercial gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antony Robertson Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 That is stunning, I've got all the bits for this sitting in sturdy cardboard boxes waiting for the day I'm brave enough to build it. Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shalako Posted October 17, 2013 Share Posted October 17, 2013 There should be a police or task-force for modellers who make such high quality models, and arrest them!!!! Unacceptable behaviour!!!!! JUST KIDDING! Fantastic work mate, the level of detailing is most certainly out of this world! I guess this is going to be the main attraction at Telford this year!!!
