Hi Guys

I need some help I am building the Sanger vac form Manchester in 1/48th the kit is almost completely devoid of internal detail.When finished it is going to be displayed at the R.A.F. Waddington heritage centre.If any of you have any 1/48th Lancaster interior bits you may not require help would be very much appreciated.

Regards

Den

Hi Dennis

If it's for an exhibit, maybe the "powers that be" could stretch to purchasing a Tamiya Lanc that you could do casts from before doing a Lancaster build for them as well?

Eduard's Lancaster detail set looks like it adds a lot of extra detail too, much of which may well be appropriate for the Manchester: http://www.eduard.com/store/Eduard/Photo-etched-parts/Photo-etched-set/Aircraft/1-48/Lancaster-interior-1-48.html

All the best

Thanks Rowan

I have sourced a set of wheels and some odds n sods.One of the guys at my local model club has a Tamiya Lanc that he has not started yet.I will ask him if I can borrow it for some details and to vac a new canopy.
