Haliburton Posted June 8 Share #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.  Scott  wefalck, Jack12477, Baker and 8 others 11 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haliburton Posted June 15 Author Share #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.  Scott mtaylor, GrandpaPhil, ccoyle and 4 others 7 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haliburton Posted June 15 Author Share #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. king derelict, Landlubber Mike, Baker and 7 others 8 2 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haliburton Posted June 30 Author Share #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.   Scott realworkingsailor, wefalck, Landlubber Mike and 9 others 12 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haliburton Posted June 30 Author Share #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!  Scott uss frolick, wefalck, cotrecerf and 11 others 12 2 Quote Currently building: HM Yacht Chatham - 1:64 - Caldercraft  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
