About product

Avro 683 Lancaster Mk.I/III 1:72 (Revell)

Injection-molded plastic kit of the British Avro 683 Lancaster Mk.I/III heavy bomber in 1:72 scale from Revell. The model has a detailed surface with engraved panel lines, a cockpit with an instrument panel, an openable bomb bay, rotating defensive turrets and clear parts. Because of the size of the real aircraft the result is a large and striking display model. It is a more demanding build for experienced modelers.

The real subject

The Lancaster was without doubt the most famous British heavy bomber of the Second World War. From 1942 it formed the backbone of the Royal Air Force night raids deep over Germany. It made its name with its large bomb load and with legendary operations, among them the sinking of the battleship Tirpitz and the raids on the German dams. It was powered by four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines.

Building and painting tips

Glue the large fuselage and the long wings in stages with thin cement for plastic, and keep the engine nacelles symmetrical. Finish the interior, the bomb bay and the turrets before you close up the fuselage. Mask the glazing and paint with an airbrush. Apply the matte night camouflage over a primer coat, and pick out the engraved lines with a light panel wash.

Who the model is for

  • For more experienced modelers with a taste for large bombers
  • For collectors of RAF aircraft
  • For anyone interested in the night bombing offensive of the Second World War
  • For lovers of striking display models

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

The Lancaster is a large four-engine bomber, so even in 1:72 scale the result is a sizable model with a wide wingspan and a strong presence in the display case.

These are the Mk.I and Mk.III variants, which differed mainly in where their Merlin engines came from. Both formed the backbone of the RAF night raids.

It is a large model better suited to more experienced modelers. It pays to build in stages and to finish the interior and the bomb bay before closing up the fuselage.
