      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.

            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.

                    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.
