They published a little more screenshots, you can notice it here for example: https://fselite.net/content/aeroplane-heaven-avro-lancaster-preview/ . However without windsheld it looks really poor, WIP I know.

“Wow, 1,935 things that look incredible!”
”Yeah, but look at that one thing!”
Sigh. Ah, forums.
Anyway, super-excited for this. Really hope to someday see a Wellington too (my great uncle flew them for the RCAF), but it’s gonna be fun to hear four Merlins purring in unison, and the detail looks amazing! I remember flying a Lanc for the first time in some early-90’s flight sim, that had untextured, colored polygons….

love the idea of a "Lanc" in MSFS2020 , just a bit puzzled by the shape of the nose turret, looks a bit pointed at the top of the glazing ??Lancaster recived glass.
Looks very nice with some external models.
I think there's some distortion in the bottom picture, which might account for it. Look at the large size of the canopy compared to the nose and depth of the fuselage. Also, the small size of the AEC Matador fuel bowser - something wrong there too. I think it's just distortion.
Not wanting to be a nitpicker here, Baz, just overly enthusiastic about AH bringing the Lancaster to MSFS ! 
Just wanted to mention to please be careful with the bumpyness of the fuselage skinplating. It's not like all over the fuselage, just a few layers at the upper area and f.i not all the way down to the front. You wouldn't want it to look like an air mattrass, although that would be nice and light and soft for the crew..
It can also depend on the point of view and light how much of it will show up. In this particular case you might want to think about less is better ?... ( i can imagine it has something to do with the kind of riveting and frames setup that is used and may not be similar across the whole fuselage ?....)
Looking forward to the Lanc, Baz ! What's not to like about sitting in between a concert for four Merlins ! Thanks a lot and well done !

No worries. Just as a bit of advice to anybody modeling support vehicles and equipment for an aeroplane: Take your pilot and drop him into the cab. If he fits the seat and his hands reach the steering wheel, your vehicle is the correct scale for the aircraft you are modelling. Our pilots (for the last 20 years) have always been modeled at 180cm when standing. They stay that way irrespective of the aircraft we model.
