Florian H.🙂 Looking for updates. When the build is going on, can you tell something about the fit of the kit?
30 July 2015, 07:31
Augie AutorHi Florian, Build is ongoing at the moment.
So far the fit is.. tight.. everything fits perfectly sometimes too perfect
30 July 2015, 09:10
Augie AutorQuick update.. some of the interior pieces as they are now.. most have needed fettling during dry fitting to allow the sides to close properly.
Its well engineered kit

Holger KranichThese Airfix Lynx´s have a good Reputation. Need to get one too!

Kerry COXAugie, Good to see you nimble fingers back in the groove mate, and it's very impressive what you have done so far. 🙂 👍
30 July 2015, 11:50

Augie AutorLOL guys 😄 mad the lot of you😉

30 July 2015, 15:23
Kerry COXHolger, I was referring to the fact that Augie is just the best with a brush, and NO nasties, just my sense of humour that got lost in the translation.:-/
30 July 2015, 22:27
Augie Autorhehe its ok guys you were both on the right directions worry not either of ya 😄
30 July 2015, 22:45
Augie AutorFurther work on the insides, going to have to scratch some wiring thats missing this could end up being a bigger build than I planned.
31 July 2015, 07:40
Holger KranichIsnt it always the same? You think: "Hmmm, that will gonna be a quick build..." And two years later you have finished the interior...LOL 😄
31 July 2015, 08:04
Augie AutorLol yeah can be.. i doint mind tho.. gives me an excuse on this one to see how far i can go.. or want to go before going crazy lol
31 July 2015, 08:06

31 July 2015, 19:00

I watch with intrigue
31 July 2015, 21:16
Augie Autorthanks guys 🙂

31 July 2015, 21:24
Kerry COXYes Augie, the "Scratch" certainly gets under your skin, especially when the results are good.🙂
The copper 'coils' look the part.
excellent stuff. 🙂
31 July 2015, 21:29
Augie AutorAnd now the wires behind the seats... kinda makes you wish they kept wires hidden..

Kerry COXAugie has been sitting in the back of this helicopter she is rewiring. 🙂
8 August 2015, 01:02

8 August 2015, 10:18
Augie AutorDidnt like the bare bulkhead at the front so busying it up a little
12 August 2015, 20:15
Augie Autorthanks Clifford, Already added a few more items into it.. now to make sure it still fits lol!
12 August 2015, 21:45
Choppa Nuttadone a nice job of the interior Augie, I like the way you handled the floor 🙂
15 August 2015, 14:10
Clifford KeeslerI watched a TV program about the Lynx last night, it is really an awesome machine. I didn't know they could roll and loop the darn thing, that is just wild.
28 August 2015, 23:47
Choppa Nutta.... Also held the world speed record for a helicopter since 1986 when a specially lightened Westland Lynx managed 249 mph which has recently been broken this year. First by the Sikorsky X2 in 2010 and more recently Eurocopter's X3 with speeds of 288 mph and 293 mph respectively.

29 August 2015, 00:24
Augie Autor🙂 yeah its a slick little machine build has slowed as having to wait on paint delivery for the grey
29 August 2015, 13:15
Clifford KeeslerMy "Bone" resin parts were shipped on Friday, so as soon as I get them I will get back to work on it.
30 August 2015, 01:39
Augie AutorOoo god need to update this.
So fueslage and skids are done.. now detailing.. and painting. will get new pic at weekend and post update..
8 September 2015, 22:39
Kerry COXLooking smart and tidy Augie. I must as what type of brush you use, be it sable, camel hair or something else, as you get the best finish to your work. 🙂
10 September 2015, 02:29
Augie AutorLol thanks guys...
Need to sort the gap at bottom of the screen..
Kerry, I use oddly nothing particularly special, Tamiya modelling brushes.. mainly the flat ones.
12 September 2015, 12:17
Kerry COXAugie, I really thought you had a secret weapon when it came to your painting skills. Thanks for that, and I have more respect for your skills now I know what you use.
Great stuff . 🙂 👍
12 September 2015, 21:02
Augie AutorThanks Bud 🙂
I'm having motivation issues with builds at the moment.. am sure it will come back 🙂
13 September 2015, 09:27
Kerry COXIf you need motivation, just take a look at all your albums you have posted here. 🙂
Mojo moments. 🙂
Something to be proud of Augie. ;-/
All 97 of them. 🙂
13 September 2015, 09:45
Augie AutorLol thanks dude 🙂 i think i just neeed an OOB special to get me going
13 September 2015, 12:42
Choppa Nutta..... yeah, I have just got Hasegawas fat little Zero and it is soooo cute 😄
..........and you can pretty well just build it and then paint it 🙂
if you are a skilled brush painter using acrylics you could probably do one in an evening😉
13 September 2015, 13:50
Kerry COXWhat in particular do you mean by "Lots" Augie.?
I am assuming (A bad thing to do) that you mean all the little details your noted for. 🙂 !
18 September 2015, 23:49
Augie AutorLol hey Kerry,
Its got a few internal details to do.. lots of external items.. decals.. weathering.. 🙂
19 September 2015, 08:39
Kerry COXAh, just those annoying little things that make all the difference. Yeah. 🙂 !
19 September 2015, 09:29
Augie Autorhehe well yeah.. and of course actually putting all the parts on.. helps lol
19 September 2015, 12:06
Augie AutorFurther wee update on this one, doing little bits in amongst other things
4 October 2015, 16:53
Choppa Nutta... shaping up nicely Augie, you should do a video tutorial on how paint with a brush properly 🙂
4 October 2015, 17:21
Augie AutorLol thanks choppa 🙂 its not hard to do it.. just a question of knowing paint and best brushes
4 October 2015, 17:31
Choppa Nuttaso you say, but I've tried and struggled with it, my bro on the other hand did it almost straight away, with Airfix paints and brushes no less..... anyhow, thought I would say 😄
4 October 2015, 18:27
Kerry COXAugie, I agree with Choppa, and a short vid would really be the icing on the cake about how you get such great results, and an inspiration for those who cant afford an air brush mate. 🙂 👍
As always, your results are wonderful to see. 🙂 👍
4 October 2015, 20:01
Choppa Nuttaand a little bit Yoda-ish judging by your grammar, haha 😄
anyhow, no time for false modesty😉
we wants our video my precious, yes we does 🙂
4 October 2015, 23:10
Clifford KeeslerI agree with Choppa and Kerry. I often find myself wondering how you get such nice finishes with a brush.
5 October 2015, 01:45
Augie AutorSo been doing further work to this.. had to pop the windscreen off.. forgot many cockpit details.. cyclic, collective, panel.. oops
13 November 2015, 22:52
Kerry COXAh, ! Just the necessities of flight, but I do that all the time. lol 🙂
But I am wondering if you used a clear glue, like 'clear fix' originally to allow you to do these repairs. ?
14 November 2015, 01:15
Kerry COXI am so pleased to know that Augie, as it is no fun once the permanent gluing is done.🙂 👍
It is coming along nicely my friend. 👍
14 November 2015, 10:15
Kerry COXThank goodness you were able to repair/correct your issues without any visible scars happening, and from the latest images, all is looking good from here on for you.🙂 🙂 👍 👍
Much happiness mate.🙂
Cheers. 👍
14 November 2015, 20:45
Augie Autorthanks chaps 🙂 give me a bit and I will get updated pics up.
