JohnB Posted January 27, 2021 Posted January 27, 2021 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. 12 1

Bomber_County Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 John, absolutely stunning, love the subtle exhaust staining. For a almost 50 year old kit it’s comes out really nicely.. 4
FME erk Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Cracking job on that John It may be a 40+ year old kit (1977) but you have turned out a model that is as good as todays standards . . . thanks for sharing Ian 6
ThomasProbert Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 That's a really lovely job - as others have said it's an old kit but builds up well. Coming in on three is still something Lancs do every now and again: Lancaster on emergency landing May 6, 2018,,with one engine out. - YouTube All the best, Tom 3 1

I thought feathering #4 would add a little something extra to the model. And doesn't go out of style! LOL 4

Kaireckstadt Posted January 28, 2021 Posted January 28, 2021 Nice to see another Lancaster here. You did a beautiful job on this one and I especially love the nose-art! The feathered propeller is a nice and very seldom seen addition! 5
