HK Lancaster Dambuster finished

[Kaireckstadt]

Here are some Pics of my finished HK Lancaster-Dambuster. 
Paints used came from the AK Real Color Line. They are simply perfect. I enhanced the Model with Eduard Big ED, resin wheels and a lot of scratchbuild items. Main source used was the Dambuster Book from Mark Postlethwaite and Peter Forkasiewicz. Simply a must when building a Dambuster. I also added the Electronics-Set from Magic Scale Modeling and made the wings detachable for transport. You can also take a look at my blog on the MSM-Webpage: https://www.magicscalemodeling.com/blog

where I described the complete build.

I only used the stencil-decals. All other markings were painted on using sets from TopNotch.

I always look forward to seeing more examples of the HK Lancaster and your version is one of the better ones. 

Have you a Link to the electronics pack for the engines I wonder ??

Hi Kev, thanks for your feedback. Moving props, light and sound would be unrealistic without figured.

Very nice build!

All around, a very nice result. The interior looks great as does the exterior. Like others said, the figures enhance the liveliness a lot, chapeau.

Cheers Rob

Very nice indeed. I always thought the upkeep mine was black. Didn't know it was rusty red.

Thank you Alan.
One intact Upkeep the germans captured was painted in red oxide primer. Other sources also state it was olive-green. I decided to paint it red-oxide to have a drop of color at the all black underside.
