Do you know what period of Lanc they would be more common too? Cheers.. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancunian airman Posted April 27, 2020 Author Share Posted April 27, 2020 Probably from Mid 1944 onwards but I dont have a date when it was introduced . .. . As with all things aircraft, a photo of the chosen subject is the best guide Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mancunian airman Posted May 4, 2020 Author Share Posted May 4, 2020 Been tinkling with this making up the turrets and masking the canopy with masking tape as you cant buy a mask for these old kits . . . paint applied . . . Turrets on their way to completion . . . It aint to far away now so should be in the gallery before the weekend . . . 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Back in the Saddle Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 That’s a lot of hand-made masking...🙄 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyW Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Just the ten required! I take my hat off to you. That low level picture above could quite easily pass for the real thing. Very nice work indeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 Lovely work and great to hear what you’ve had to say about Lancasters over the course of the GB. It’s been very informative and entertaining all the way through. Your two 100 Squadron additions have turned out beautifully. Cheers and well modelled..

woody37 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I always enjoy looking at your photos as they capture the atmosphere of the airfield well with a gorgeous centre life whether it be a Manchester or a lancaster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
