  1. Very nice work, never knew the Canadian post war lancs had their own style of turretness.
  2. The doors are doubleskinned so apart from rivetlines there is no detail.
  3. I understand, you are not used to small balls. New balls please! Very nice set up. Cees
  4. Very nice Jeroen, The original bit of V2 really tops it off. Cees
  5. Some progress. Cutting up the Airscale Lancaster pe parts. Just remove what's Lancaster. Sorry Peter. Also been doing some further work in the portside fitting piping. And the twin controlwheels. Cees
  6. Well fairings usually were screwed to the fuselage and the thickness of the metal made it stand a bit proud of the surface. Cees
  7. I have news for you. It certainly is beginning to look like a very nice Beau. Cees
  8. Very nice review James. Graham told me that there are no surviving drawing of the Attacker and he measured the last remaining one at Yeovilton. Also there have been some reports on the net that the intakes are wider than the rear fuselage that fits onto them. I read in the instructions that it was because the intake rims are more bulbous. Will have to check first. Cees
  9. Oh get a room you two
  10. Fantastic! Nice subject too. Cees
  11. Just to be sure, the horizontal frame at the rear of the canopy is on the inside, the outside is smooth and the raised lines should be scraped away. The only thing you see from the outside are the boltheads. We have mentioned this several times to Neil but to no avail. Cees
  12. Thanks very much Check, this is what I was looking for. Cees
  13. Tubeway Army? I like the way you want to represent the cannon tubes. I did it the easy way and drilled them out and capping the inside with tubing slit horizontally to avoid the see through look. Great work. Cees
  14. Back on the chaindrill gang Jim? Looks to be a nice conversion. Cees
  15. Time for an update. I thought I messed it up as I had to correct the previous sawcuts. But when I widend the gap it made sense. The triangular wedges have been glued in and the deeper FGR2 rear fuselage profile begins to emerge. The insides will be reinforced with Miliput as the seams are fragile. Looks like I got it. I'm happy. Cees
  16. That tailwheelcompartment looks like the dog's danglies. But how on earth will you be painting this? The point and spray technique? Cees
  17. Thanks Check, I was thinking the same thing. sometimes I wonder how Frank managed his conversion as the angles are sometimes quite square and difficult to correct. Cheers, Cees
  18. Despite the Frank Mitchell articles to hand enlarging the rear fuselage it not so easy. Slowly but surely... Cees
  19. Very nice Jeroen, I can use that for the Manchester too. Want! Cees
  20. Thanks Ivan, this will be very useful when I get to the engraving part. Cheers Cees
