1/72 Dambusters Lancaster - Walrus - 01-24-2012 Hi Lads, here's one I finished a while back. My biggest by far, full of PE and resin too. Quite a mission to build because of the AM bits but I think it looks like a Lanc and that's a decent result. Pics are not great sorry. J for Johnnie, Maltby's craft, it dropped the bomb that took out the main dam. Cheers RE: 1/72 Dambusters Lancaster - Compass Rose - 01-25-2012 Very Nice! Thanks for showing. With a wingspan that big, where do you safely store it? RE: 1/72 Dambusters Lancaster - Iwo Jim - 01-27-2012 Great work Jason, looks like you sunk quite a few hours into that one. I've got a couple of big kits I'd like to do, a 1/48 B-17 and a 1/24 JU-87B but I don't know what the hell I'd do with them once there built RE: 1/72 Dambusters Lancaster - Walrus - 01-27-2012 Thanks lads, yes it is big, Wingspan is 41cm and it is 30cm long. I have a few shelves in my work area / kitchen where I stash my models...not under glass or anything, just basic shelves. Everything I have made so far is 1/72 so I can fit quite a few per shelf. I have some more big ones yet to build..1/72 Liberator and B-17s then there are a few 1/32 in the stash...Spitfire, Bf-109 and SE5a though being fighters, they are about the same size as the Lanc. I say build them...and then worry about a place to put them later...you'll find one! Hurrah!
