I have uploaded a few photos of Polish Mi-6 before and after restoration here:
Once there was a collection | Album by podkon ; and here:
Polish Air Force Museum - Dęblin | Album by podkon. Perhaps you will find them useful.

BAT21

BAT21 builds a chopper? Not without me!

BAT21

Pierre-Christian Baudru
Can't wait to see it finish !

Promising start. 👍🏻 Following with interest!

BAT21
It's nice that the audience seats are filling up.

Alec K
Solid progress 👍

Alexander Grivonev
Habe den Kit seit Jahren im Besitz, traue mich aber nicht ran. Was für ein Monster👍

BAT21
Wer bei der Tu 128 von Trumpeter alle Fehler in Perfektion beseitigt hat, muss sich nicht vor der Mi-6 fürchten.
Etwas Spachtelmasse und Schleifpapier bereitlegen... und schon kann es losgehen 😉

Alexander Grivonev
Ja das war wirklich eine Baustelle das Ding. Aber trotz des Ehrgeizes der Chinesen, dem Modellbauer auch den letzten Nerv zu rauben, sieht mir Amodel so auf den ersten Blick nach mehr Arbeit aus...

Gergő Takács
Wow! Very cool Project! I will take a seat! 🙂

Feel welcome mates.

Michael Kohl
Starts to look like a Mil Mi-6? Well, then it's time to charge the teaser to a picture of your model. 😉

Juergen Klinglhuber
Joining in late, but sure worth it. Clean built on this "filling the gaps" giant. 👍

Q: The tiny "brass" colored tubes for the wiring on the main rotor head, are those bits of cut up syringe tips?

BAT21
For these parts I cut 0.5mm brass tubes from Albion Alloys.

Spanjaard
rotor head is truly impressive

Alec K
I agree, pimped to the hilt 👍

Casey Beckett
Recently discovered Albion Alloys here - lovely stuff!

BAT21
Many thanks guys, much appreciated.

CaptGPF
That rotor work is sick!
…but so is the PE cockpit work at this scale! Watching!

Alec K
Excellent progress 👍

Łukasz Gliński
On the pic #35 it looks professional, not provisional 😉

Great start. Following with interest. A pretty good kit for the time with one of Airfix's best box arts too IMHO. RIP Roy Cross.

Dave Flitton

Finally finished. It has been a long and hard job. Apart from the re-engraving, almost everything had to be filed, adjusted, cut or puttyed. The transparent parts that are glued before closing the fuselage have not turned out very well, since the masks did not fit and had bubbles. I have also had problems with the adjustment of the masks in the other transparent parts, but at least I have been able to complete them with Tamiya tape. The amount of ballast has been enormous (28 gr) and even so, the balance is very precarious (I was afraid to add more because the landing gear legs are very fragile). I think the homemade decals have turned out great. Despite all the problems and defects in the finish, I am quite satisfied with the result. Now, I need to rest and take it easy. The next model I will build will be a Hobby Boss. 🙂. Thanks everyone for the likes, comments and follow-ups.

Nicolas
Very good result. 👍

Skyhiker
Congratulations on finishing this beast. Your hand painted metallic finish is really impressive. Well done.

Paul Eden
Beautiful model.

Amenofys
Thanks Nicolas, Skyhiker and Paul. 😜
