As I am covid positive (fortunately only with very mild syntomas) I had some time to build again today. So far I am positively surprised by the accuracy of fit. There are no locator pins, but I can now click the fuselage and cockpit together and even the tail section holds without glue.

I would like to do some rivets on the exteriour, but I couldn't find some good drawings. If somebody has a hint I would be grateful.

Today I started installing the controls. Doing so I noticed, the collectiv controls are missinh in the kit. So I started scratchbuilding them after photos. Also fabricated and installed blinds for the paxes.

Welcome Łukasz, there is no reason to be afraid. The fit seams quite good, and the missing details is somthin one can improve. 😉

Hi Bughunter, thanks.
Covid wasn't to bad, I got 3 day with mild syntomas and 5 days waiting for a negativ test. 😉

Album info
Build proces for my 1/72 Eurocopter BK-117 in Stunning Space Design colours designed by Luigi Colani. The Kit is based on a 1988 Matchbok kit and there is no detail set or a kit from better moulds that I know of. So I'll try to improve this oldie a little bit.
I'm going to present the helicopter on a helipad in a city with 2 pilots waiting for some VIPs.
