Karl Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 (edited) Here are some pictures of my completed 1/72 scale Lancaster's. They have both been somewhat modified; the work in progress can be found here: '>1/72 Lancasters - Revell and Airfix - simultaneous builds Hope you like them, thanks for looking!

Karl Posted April 18, 2014 Author Share Posted April 18, 2014 Hi Karl. Now that you've built both Airfix and Revell, which do you like most? Hi, That's a very interesting question, they both have their plus points, however the Revell kit pips it to the post with it being a much newer kit (my Airfix Lanc was the older mould) it's much more detailed out of the box and the wing attachment is much stronger. That's not to say that the Revell kit is perfect; in my opinion (only my opinion mind) it needed the wing dihedral changing and the mid upper turret lowering slightly (I did do that, but never mentioned it in my build article) but it does feel a much more flimsy kit than the Airfix Lanc - that feels much heavier and stronger. Definitely the Revell kit, but it's close and I don't know how it compares to the new Airfix Lancaster as I don't (yet!!) have one in the stash.
