Another gem from Accurate Miniatures except for the fit of the composite glass house.
Avro Lancaster B MkIII – Tamiya's 1/48th scale classic
Evening guys and gals,
Here's a model I completed today - Tamiya's classic of the mighty Lancaster in 1/48th scale. My model represents a B MkIII of 300 (Polish) Squadron, based at RAF Faldingworth in early/mid-1944.

A kit that never fails to deliver the authentic look of the iconic aircraft.

Every once in a while you find a kit that was better than expected, case in point for me: the 1/48th Revell F-86D Dog Sabre. My kit builds into an early F-86D (without the braking parachute) although the version with the parachute housing [...]
Tamiya 1/48 Do 335A Pfeil
The clean lines of the Pfeil makes Tamiya's kit a pleasure to build and the authentic look of the model when completed. The only criticism I have is the rather modular design of cockpit components and the instrument decal.
