Classic Avro Lancaster recreated in 1/48 scale

The Avro Lancaster B Mk.I/III stands out in WWII aviation, fitted with four Rolls Royce Merlin engines and produced to about 7,377 airframes. Its operational legacy makes it a popular subject for model builds.

This 1/48 scale kit aims to reproduce the Lancaster's lines and operational equipment, making it a satisfying project for hobbyists who enjoy careful assembly and finishing.

Parts and presentation targeted at modellers

The kit is crafted for builders who like to get into the details. Options cover both early and late variants of the Mk.I and Mk.III, and the supply of fine cockpit components, a detailed rear turret, and a true-to-form landing gear bay enhance the model's presentation.

Intermediate painting ability is recommended to get the most from the kit. Accurate marking placement and weathering will lift the final look, so expect to spend time on masking and fine brushwork.
The kit is comprehensive out of the box, but advanced modellers sometimes add photo-etched parts or extra rigging to increase fidelity. These are optional depending on the finish you want.
Yes, the front, dorsal and rear gun turrets are movable, allowing you to set them in different positions for dynamic display or diorama scenes.
