Airfix Lancaster B. Mk1

[Blitz23]

Hi Chaps,

 

I am entering an old BBMF boxing of an Airfix Mk1 Lanc, has been partially started but below the 25% rule.  Looking at finishing this one wheels up on a stand, potentially might order some prop blur propellors as well.

Here's the boxing below;

 

Will be ordering new decals for this build and thinking of potentially finishing her as "Uncle Joe Again" from 463 Sqn, RAAF.

 

 

 

Also have a revell Dambuster to build but I won't overcommit just yet!

As stated I had previously started this one a while ago, so here is how it stands with the start day drawing ever closer, mainly just assmebled both wings.

Looking forward to finally getting this one off the ground, things left to purchase;

• New set of decals
• Stand
• Maybe a prop blur set

Been searching online for a set of decals that are appealing and I've found this pair from Kits-World which they do in 1/72, both are rather appealing A/C but I'm yet to decide.

 

Building wise not alot of change, starting to paint the interior up so hoping to have the fuselage closed up by the end of the week.

Personally I would go with the first one as its not one that is commonly out there  . . . .

Great to see another one of these Classic Lanc kits join the fray... I'll be honest and add my preferences for 463 Squadron's Uncle Joe... she's an Aussie bird of course! 

Cheers and best of luck.. Dave

Gonna have to cancel this one guys! In lockdown at home at I've left the kit at work, so doubtful I'll have time to get it finished.
