Haliburton Posted June 8 #1 Posted June 8 Continuing on with my WW1 theme, I’m starting on the Lanchester armoured car offered by Copper State Models. The number of frets with this kit are not huge but what sets the kit apart are the quality of the detailing and a most beautifully detailed and colourized instruction manual on thick stock paper. Lanchesters were the second most numerous armoured car in service during WW1 and was designed by the Admiralty Air Dept for the Royal Naval Air Service to support air bases and retrieve downed pilots.

Haliburton Posted June 15 Author #3 Posted June 15 This is coming together quickly thanks to some of the clearest instructions I’ve seen in a while. Quite a contrast to Meng. Lovely detail on these molded parts. I hope everyone has a wonderful Father’s Day tomorrow.

Haliburton Posted June 15 Author #4 Posted June 15 I should add that my son is working on another lego build so we’re in the workshop together. Here’s a sidebar update on his Lego Artemis. It will have a place of honour next to his Apollo rocket. Landlubber Mike, Canute, Old Collingwood and 7 others 8 2 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft
Haliburton Posted June 30 Author #5 Posted June 30 Well some time has passed but the work has continued. The distractions of the season - gardening in particular _ are definitely impacting my time at the bench.

Haliburton Posted June 30 Author #6 Posted June 30 Thanks everyone for the likes! I’ve done some additional weathering, added the unditching boards and decals and will call this done!

Thanks Mike - yes CSM is great - I have another one in the stash as well. The parts detail and fit set their stuff apart.
