Thank you! I'm pleased that you like it.

All done with this one. I decided to do a little something "extra" and feather the #4 prop. More than one Lanc came back like that! Paints used were Colourcoats and Model Master. Built mostly OOB except for some Eduard PE in the cockpit area. Makes for a BIG model and I was always banging a wing tip on something while working on it. I let a couple of small things pass as I was just tired of working on it. I hope ya'll like the results of my efforts.

All done. Check completed work.

Thanks Gaz. I'm just about to get this one finished. A day or so at most barring buggerups.

That's a heck of a thing to have happen. Looks like you have it well in hand now.

Thanks. Yes they did Jeff. Much better than the kit decals.

Probably not. Just a good deal in my opinion.

A good deal I just couldn't pass up! Free shipping too.

I just realized I forgot to thank Bill_S for the paint! Two bottles of MM RAF Interior Grey Green! Very much appreciated! Thanks! John

A big "THANK YOU" to GusMac for his help!!!!!

Thank you Dennis. It should really look nice when all markings are on.

Decaling underway. The national markings are Eaglecals.

Thanks Phil. I'll overspray the upper wings with clear gloss before adding the roundels. I prefer to attach decals over a gloss finish to minimize silvering. After all the decals are on I'll spray it with a clear flat then do some exhaust stains and weathering.

Thank you! I built the 1st release many years ago, so this will be #2.

Painting, except for some touch up and weathering, done.

Thanks Dennis. It's a very nice kit although the cowlings have some difficulties.

Painting progress. Nacelles and wing undersides next.

LOL Thanks Gaz. LOTS of painting time!

Yes, I saw that but I'd need both. One of our members has offered to send me what I need from England so now I'm okay for those. Thanks!!!!

Uppers done. Now for the black undersides.

As I expected they can't ship enamel paints to the US. BUMMER. A few years ago I got some via a contact in England but, since I've slept since then, I don't remember who it was. I was hoping to find someone who would send me some "under the radar" so to speak.

Hopefully 4 tinlets wouldn't be a bank breaker. We'll see.

The last I heard they were not allowed to ship enamels to the US. I looked at their site and saw they had the one's I need but didn't try to order them. Might have been a mistake on my part so I'll give it try. We will see! Thanks!!!!

Painting under way! Colourcoats.

Thanks guys. Yes, I have some Colourcoats paints and have used them in the past. They work well but I really wanted the gloss finish of Xtracolor paints this time around due to the large decals and the possibility of silvering, etc. I think I will just go on and use the Colourcoats this time anyway and then overspray with clear gloss although I was hoping to avoid that. Thanks again!!!!!
