    Bomber's Moon! "Right chaps, time to climb aboard" Anywhere, Lincolnshire 1943.

    It's my 1/72 Revell Lancaster and Airfix RAF ground crew.

    I hope you like this 'Quicky'

              Beautifully photo'd but I dunno why you did all that fantastic paintin' if all we're gonna see is the thing in total darkness! :smiling:

              PS Hope none of the ground crew fall in that water in the dark!

                570 Dave is right and you could have saved a lot of time just painting it black.

                  Does look nice but the plane could have been pink or just plain plastic for a shot like that. :tears-of-joy:

                      Thanks Lady and Gents for your most excellent posts.

                      To those fine chaps and buddies of mine showing concern about the lack of colour, my strategy is simple. By presenting the model as a silly wett, it keeps any possible nit pickers, fault finders and 'Zoom' merchants on S.M. at arms length.

                      I recommend the cunning plan to the House......

                      However, I'm sure they will get their own back when I do present the bomber in colour.

                      Yours,
                      Sqn. Ldr. R. Suppards (453570) (Ret.) - V.C. and Bar / D.S.O/ D.S.C./ D.F.C./ M.C./ G.M./ Iron Cross with Oak Leaves/ J.P./ G.C./ Purple Heart/ Croix de Guerre/ A.S.D.A./C.B.E./ O.B.E./ A.S.B.O.

                      Stay safe everyone....
