In this video I build the Airfix 1:72 Avro Lancaster bomber twice - once in the Tiger Force white camouflage scheme designed for the Far East, and once in the traditional Dark Earth and Dark Green RAF Bomber Command scheme.

Lancasters, wearing the distinctive white paint scheme to reduce temperatures in the tropical heat, were prepared with the intention of striking the Japanese mainland. Tiger Force Lancasters never saw combat in the Far East - the use of atomic weapons against Japan put an end to the war before they could be deployed. • The Avro Lancaster is easily Britain's most famous bomber aircraft, forming the backbone of RAF Bomber Command for a large part of World War 2. It's Dark Green and Dark Earth paint scheme is iconic, and is applied to the second model kit in this video. In total 7,377 Lancasters were built, with 3,249 being lost in action. From Bomber Command's 125,000 aircrew, 55,573 killed. The Imperial War Museum puts the chances of successfully exiting a stricken Lancaster at just 15%. Only 35 Lancasters completed more than 100 successful operations each, and today only two airworthy examples remain. • 0:00 History kit contents • 3:08 Building the Lancasters • 12:19 Painting the Lancasters • 16:25 Decals • 19:20 Final details • 24:20 WWII RAF Bomber Resupply Set • 27:27 Base 1 construction • 30:22 Base 2 construction • 33:02 Final images • 37:20 Future videos • You can also support my channel with the links below: • Patreon: / modelnerd • Amazon store: https://amzn.to/370Fk7H • Ko-Fi: https://ko-fi.com/modelnerd • Instagram: / model.nerd • Music: Ben Sound (www.bensound.com) • FTC disclosure: This video or description contains affiliate links.
