    Airfix Lancaster B Mk1

    Hello,

    Well having spent so long reading and absorbing information from this forum, I've finally completed something which I dare post. I'm still no where near totally happy with the result, but compared to my first attempt (a poor Hurricane - no you can't see it) it's not looking too bad.

    The model is from the Airfix BBMF set. It's a well known model, so no point me going through the problems encountered - except - has anyone else had problems with Humrol decal fix reacting with 'Clear' ? I got a big white spot on the port wing from the decal fix, but no problems anywhere else ?

    Well happy viewing, and I'm more than happy to hear suggestions for any improvments I can make before starting my 1:48 Mosquito.

    Regards

    Colin M

    Very nice that Colin. I'm actually doing this trio myself at the moment and have finished the two fighters. Your build has given me the good kick up the a*se I needed to get on with the Lanc!

    I use microsol/set and have had milky areas appear in the Klear coat but they have always disappeared when I've applied the next coat over the decals.
