chrish Posted September 4, 2022 Author Share Posted September 4, 2022 engines attached to mounts, exhaust stacks added. If exposing the engines (maybe) they'd need a lot more plumbing and wiring. stacks from the second cylinder back added for weathering exhaust deposits from second cylinders back; radiators added, I was tempted to go with aluminum color but figured these things probably had copper radiators...?

chrish Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Still plugging away, at least thats what I'm calling it. 3 bottles of Tamiya NATO black lacquer (I ran out and had to go get more) and the wing and fuselage bottoms are covered. back to acrylics for the top colors, homemade mix for the dark earth.

chrish Posted September 18, 2022 Author Share Posted September 18, 2022 Thanks! still splashing paint, using my tried and true(ish) method of wetting paper shapes as masks and painting over them (at low pressure) I've got some RAF dark green on the model I used paper from my wife's trash can here; I used painters tape on the fuselage...too curvy for paper.

chrish Posted September 20, 2022 Author Share Posted September 20, 2022 a few decals on while it's still kind of easy to swing around on the bench, going to be a lot harder with tails props and all the engines on it MikeC, Phantom2, BradG and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DonH Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Well, if you are striving for mediocrity then you have failed massively. Lovely looking Lanc! Those sharkmouth decals look awesome. Dpgsbody55, Alain Gadbois and chrish 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dpgsbody55 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) In your quest for mediocrity, I think you've failed upwards. That's a great looking Lanc and you've done well. Nice work.
