I´m building the Tamiya Lancaster in 1/48 for the Bombs Away build.
What color and markings did British bombs have during WWII?

Suggest you add .040 card spacers to the centre rows of bomb mounts

Hi Antoni!![]()
Please, excuse a "metric" guy, how much is .040 in millimetres?
I´ll use the Airfix cookie as i already had the B. MkXVI/PR XVI kit, and I won´t (ever!) build a Mossie with those ugly bulged doors!
The SAMI Lancaster Datafile book have several plans for different bomb loads so I have already removed the (bomb) mounting pins beside the cookie.
Thanks for Your help!![]()

Now that I found the ongoing discussion, what do you make of the colours for these bombs ? Looks like a 2- tone - lighter back end and darker front end. Could it be the "old" yellow tails with olive green fronts ?

Could a mix of "old" yellow and olive bombs be possible in a mid-1944 bomb load ?
Thanks for the help (again),
Brian
