Rudy PoseikaALMOST complete. The optional rigging instructions showed 30 lines. I used 20 (did not double up in the front). A little more touch ups and add the engine and on to the next. The next model will be my first with PHOTO ETCH...

Rudy PoseikaGenerally happy with the results. *Need to work on rigging in general...
*I did have a bright yellow acrylic but it would not stick well on the primer. I ended up using the Tamiya yellow green and the coating was good - just not 'yellow yellow'.
*The ordering of the wrong decals was a bummer. Also - recap - the first time I had two models on the go. Today was a cold but sunny day. A good day to take the 'official' portraits outside.

OK, I see that the front machine gun on my model is on the upper side of the canopy blister, while the painting shows it...

Rudy PoseikaNearing completion. Added machine guns in the groove, grooves on cowling, and braces on fuselage in front of cockpit. Saw those details in a 1/48 scale kit of this aircraft.

Rudy PoseikaNot bad for a 50+ year old kit. Could not have done it without decal film. The decals were not yellowed but did look 'dry'... Kit complete and 'flying'.

Rudy PoseikaI just read that there were only 9 (or 10) built. None saw action (except in simulations now..)
11 July, 20:31
Rudy PoseikaSince none saw action I was uncertain of weathering. I did some highlighting which turned into some wear and tear. The yellow round decals were delicate and the upper port circle was torn just by a touch of a finger (trying to flatten a wrinkle). The red circle on top hid the blemish but it shows as the depressed area it is.

Rudy PoseikaMy local model club, members who submit to events, have discussions about "What is" a Diorama, Vignette, or simply a Base.... You submit to the wrong class or define your creation incorrectly - oh well! I enjoy the process, the journey not the destination

Rudy PoseikaThis little aircraft has stretched my modelling skills. I think I need some more tools if I am to do more aircraft with rigging. I have not put on antenna wires for similar reasons, I guess. I read and read the instructions and made 40 little eyelets and drilled holes and glued them on the plastic. Then after some assembly and more pre fitting testing I was not able to 'tension' the rigging to my satisfaction on the rear stabilizer. Drooping wire and glue blobs.. I cut off the eyelets and pressed down - sanded and painted best I could to cover the mess.
Plenty of work and touch up to do - clear coat, weathering and decals. I found a 'hack' for rigging on youtube to use pre cut guitar wire in the proper lengths. I may try that on this little guy...

Rudy PoseikaThere is still a mess with glue spots, and I have EZLINE fine on order, but for rigging on this little fellow - it works..

Rudy PoseikaRe: My bogus comment, it seemed there were two NA S Lancs. One was lost in action earlier in the war (probably the box art), and a newer Lanc made in Canada had the same call letters.

Rudy PoseikaModel is basically complete, except for it's official portait (on a mirror in the outdoors). Resin is an interesting working material. Learned a lot in regards to how to glue, sand, paint, protective equipment. The decals went on well. The hardest part was the vacu form canopy. It left large gaps on both sides of the fuselage, even with some forced bend shaping. It took patience and 6 application-layers of white glue to fill the gap..
Generally happy with the result. I need to clean up my work area after this one.

Rudy PoseikaLast bit of work is to minimize - eliminate silvering on the top two decals. Does not really show up that much in lamp light, but in the photos with natural light.

Rudy PoseikaI am about 9 months into coming back making models, made 15 so far, running out of room. I used to make 100s in the 1960s and 1970s (only 3 of those models remain). I am slowing down, but thought I'd try the smaller scale for 4 engine aircraft.
