Alexander you took the words right out of my mouth. It looks like a bug I once stepped on. Very strange little bird. Nice job Anitolli.
Album info
The resin model produced by the Western company LF Models is the first prototype of a helicopter with tail washers of a modified shape. The kit includes resin (with a lot of bubbles), decal (hard), a canopy pulled out of film of very average quality (in two copies, thanks to the manufacturer for this). But the model is the only one for true fans of helicopters.
Of the alterations.
A wretched and absolutely wrong cabinet, made anew from a photo, from the original parts only the pilots' seats were left.
An attempt to sand the canopy was practically unsuccessful due to the cloudy film. And sanding the film is a problem.
All thin resin parts were replaced with wire ones.
All missing antennas and pipes on the belly were installed.
The place of attachment of the NV blades to the hub is reinforced with wire.
15-20 grams of load in the nose. Arcus and Transform Model paints, Sunin7 semi-matte varnish.
The result is in the photo. Thank you for your attention.
