Hi all got this for a birthday prezzy View attachment 40490 so i'm going to use the Lancaster out of it View attachment 40491 View attachment 40492 View attachment 40493 The Lancaster's going to be shot down in a field ( think this theme may come up a lot in this GB ) After a successful bombing raid so at least theres some plane left

I was thinking of doing this first View attachment 40494 View attachment 40495 Showing a crash at an air show. If i have time i may still do it

Nice one Ian, but you're not going to trash a perfectly good model....are you?lol

The Sukhoi would be easy to do, just get a grassy dio. base and empty the contents of the box onto it. No need to glue anything together....Job done!

Cheers,

Ron
 
I would off gone for the Lancaster as well. The thought of making and painting 10000 figures for the crowd at an air-show would drive me nuts!

Joking aside I can also envisage a few crashed aeroplanes turning up in this SIG.

I will be watching this one go down.......get it, go down. crash, oh never mind.

Hi Aaron Well i would say TRYING to do a wrecked Lancaster this may take the full 6 months to complete
 
you'll do it Ian. plenty of scope on a crashed lanc to work on.

looking forwards to seeing it come together
 
Yep, Im with Colin looking forward to this build.

All good things take time good luck Ian
