Lancaster MK III
« on: January 02, 2013, 12:26:48 AM »
Hello to all and happy new year!

I have been working on this profile for nearly two years. This past summer I was about 80% finished when I lost the file I was working on and didn't have an up to date back up. This was the most catastrophic file loss I have ever had, I lost about 20 hours worth of work, all the turret and cockpit details had to be recreated and that is a very time consuming part of the project.

However, i am now back to where I was in the summer so I thought I'd post my progress. I intend to ramp up my profiling this year.

Now that I have finished th rest of the turrets and the tailwheel, I am back to where I was when I lost my work. I can't say its fun doing most of it all over again, but I am probably 90% complete now.

Finally finished, the small details took longer than I thought as there were more than I expected.

Next up individual weathered machines....
