Hi all, here is a
quick and fun model I built whilst away on my hols. Anyone who has spent time in
Britain will know about the vagaries of the British climate, so I took the
precaution of arming myself with a project to build between showers!
This little kit was
supplied with a pot of glue, three acrylic paint pots and a two headed paint
brush. I built the kit straight out of the box using no filler and the kit
decals applied directly onto the brush painted surface.

The finished item is far from
perfect. The instructions are a little vague in some places ,
so the exhausts may
be wrong and the antennas might not be correct either. Having said that, I
thoroughly enjoyed the couple of hours this took to build. As the Yorkshire rain
poured down against the windows I was magically transported back to my youth and
a time when I built all of my models this way.
(At some point I'd like to
attempt the larger 1/35th scale version of this 'copter so we'll see how that
one turns out!)
