Time to start another build and as I enjoyed the last one so much I am doing another with a few extras to help me out
First of all the parts IMG_20221215_133359.jpgIMG_20221215_133143.jpgIMG_20221215_133156.jpgIMG_20221215_133211.jpgIMG_20221215_133304.jpgIMG_20221215_133316.jpgIMG_20221215_133114.jpgIMG_20221215_133129.jpg
And the extras IMG_20230917_094459_edit_3703299196830.jpgIMG_20230917_094451_edit_3690607192145.jpgIMG_20230917_094444_edit_3676085015063.jpgIMG_20230917_094436_edit_3665313034336.jpg
 
Doug's right "You gotta love a Lanc"
Lots of kits available in various scales. This one seems to have collected some good reviews. Being 1/72 it will be a manageable size although still big.

I forgot about this one anyway I have been trying out the roundel and letter masks I think the color might be off but I would like some more opinions please before I get paint over and use the decals IMG_20231016_144734.jpg
 
That's come on fast Peter. I'll let others better qualified than me comment on the colours

I have one of these in stash. From your previous build, do I recall you saying you can the wings off right until the very end because of the way they fit the fuselage?

Keep up the good work.

A quick insight into the spray on masks
First starting with yellow IMG_20231017_095200.jpg
Masking off and now the blue

Masking off and now the white IMG_20231017_095854.jpgIMG_20231017_100036.jpg
Finally Masking off the white and the final red IMG_20231017_100301.jpgIMG_20231017_102749.jpg
And after a bit of weathering it looks like this

Looking good Peter. Wouldn’t comment on the accuracy of the colours from a PC screen, they aren’t that great at reproducing accurate colours. If it looks close to the kit decals to you then it’s probably OK. Airfix decals are usually pretty good.
