discussion Spanner 570's Airfix 1/72 Battle of Britain Lancaster B III....With a twist!

[spanner570]

As you might remember, I finally received the missing sprue for this kit.
So Lee, away we go.... :thumb2:

The twist? What I have in mind should be fun and make me sweat!


No box art I'm afraid, just a heap of sprues. I won't bore you with individual shots.



Cheers.
Ron

That's a biiiiig pile of Sprues!

Sitting comfortably and watching with interest. If the "twist" is that dance from the 60s, don't try it. You'll do yourself a permanent. People of our age need to avoid strange gyrations :rolling:

As always looking forward to the Ron treatment , cheers tony

Oi! you speak for yourself, I can girate with the best of them, maybe not to their 'music' but to what's coming through the tin foil hat....

Once the lights have gone down I’ll sneak down to the fire exit and let you in andy - always used to work at the Rex cinema when we were kids ( a proper old fleapit , ask anybody from south sheffield !)

 

[spanner570]

You're more than welcome chaps and thanks for the encouraging and humorous posts.

Sweet!

Sorry Lee, I was aiming at LeeW who sold me the bomber in the first place. Way back when, so it's good to finally be able to build it....Good to have you along none the less. :thumb2:

No coconut for IanM.

Cheers all.
Ron

 

[Lee Drennen]

Sorry Lee, I was aiming at LeeW

He builds you up Lee, and then he breaks your heart...

 

[colin m]

I just want to know (at this stage) will water be involved ?

 

[spanner570]

Thanks chaps.

Sorry Colin, but no water involved - Not this time anyway.

 

[spanner570]

The twist....

We all have our different ways of approaching our hobby. Now't wrong with that and I'm certainly not knocking anything or anybody. But I still can't understand why folks take so much time and care over aircraft interiors only to completely hide all the detail, so......

Initial drilling and filing I still might be able to whittle a bit more plastic.


Cheers.
Ron
