I have done a repaint pack for the FCS Lancaster. The FCS products have got a lot of critics, but I were very pleasantly surprised over the FCS Lancaster. It is a nice model indeed.

A big thank to Dave Q for letting me use his paintkit! It was a great starting point for my own interpretation of details and colours.

Thanks!

I got the confirmation that it was approved for the soh library, so I think it should be available.
