Lindberg, do you have any prior experience with them? I'm building their Avenger right now, and it seems pretty good.

its the first lindberg kit i've ever seen and up to yet everything seems OK, no engines in the thing though not bad for a 1967 model kit

ian.

 

[Catch22]

It's from 1967? Holy crap. I don't know when my Avenger's from. It has an engine, although it's radial, so I guess it has to. It's not the most detailed of kits, but like yours, everything seems to be ok.

 

[Screaming Eagle]

so how is the avenger coming along catch?

 

[Catch22]

Slow, but steady sir. I just posted a partial update in the USS Bunker Hill Builds thread.

 

[Switcha]

G'day Ian, I found your work on another forum and have used it as a basis for building my own Lancaster 'Grand Slam'. I found it brilliant to have someone who built a very similar model and show you all the 'cheats' for building it. I'm nearly finished my own Lanc and would like to know how you did the exhaust stains so well and also exactly how you did the radio wires.



Pictures moved to the thread about Switcha's Lancaster.

I know, I know the Grand Slam is not suppose to have to front top turrent but I could not help myself.

I look forward to your reply.
Cheers Switch
