Revell 1/72 Lancaster

[Eshark]

This is my first attempt at a bomber the Revell kit is fairly good however the dihedral on the wing was none existant in the kit as is,so with some sawing I managed to correct that.Now Iam looking at the Tamiya 1/48 dambuster with bouncing bomb,but also it has an option for the grand slam I beleive it is to represent the Tirpiz attack.Anyhow hope you like the pics

Looking good Mr Shark Where do you find the room to keep all your models?

[Eshark]

Good question Crash

At the moment the man cave is somewhat over crowded think I might have to get a display cabinet especially if I get the 1/48 Tamiya Lancaster its huge after that I think I might have to curtail my building running out of room fast and the misses has banned any planes in the living room

Thats really nice Shark . What is the wingspan of the 1/48 scale Lancaster?

Oh yeah (ahem)....know all mode on;

Tallboys used against Tirpitz...........

know all mode off.........ah, thats better.

lol not sure about the wing span but the guy in the model shop opened the box for me the tamiya has prepianted cockpit as an option wich is cool save all that masking but it does have the unpainted cockpit as well for those of us who are sadomasicists and want to put ourseleves through all that hassel.The wing span I would say is a good 8-9 inches maybe a little bigger lots of detail in the cockpit and a good set of decals worth the hassel I think

Just looked it up Arthur the wing span is 648mm length is 433mm so its a fairly big kit
