MASSIMILIANO Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Hi Guys, this is my last project. Avro Lancaster in scale 1:72 Airfix. The aircraft I tried to reproduce in scale was the "S for Sugar" No 467 Squadron Royal Australian Air Force ,Royal Air Force Waddington, Lincolnshire 1944. The model has been very well designed by Airfix and it didn't present any particular issue for a young modeller like me. I completed the item with seatbelts and a few bombs after market (the Airfix ground crew was not considered since I didn't want to build a diorama). The model was hand painted. I tried some dirty effects on the undercarriage with oil colours and using Tamiya master weathering for the engine exhausts. I hope you like it and as always I cannot wait to receive your comments. Thanks 35 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rad2474 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Very nice looking Lancaster. I've just bought the Airfix Vulcan to do after my T34, after seeing the models on here it'll probably come out like out was made on Blue Peter! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheyJammedKenny! Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 Nicely done, especially your effective weathering techniques on the tires and engines. Keep modeling! Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapam Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Awesome! I assume "hand-painted" means with brushes - demonstrating you have a great talent for the method. I like the chalkiness in the black of the nacelles too - if anything, a little bit of the same effect on the wings and fuselage would stand up well. .
