Well out of my comfort zone! Never done a vacuform kit. So far it's been quite enjoyable… interior almost done. Not my best but gives the impression I'm going for. Bit of artistic licence going on too. 😄

Definitively following!
Have one in my stash too and never did vacuform either. Expecting a lot of reports on your experience during that built 🙃

Thank you for the support! Fuselage halves are together and it looks like an S-76 😁 fair bit of extra plastic card and filler but probably more my inexperience with vacform. Slightly disappointed about the interior; some sanding dust managed to creep in and it was very noticeable. I managed to clean a bit of it out with some water and washing up liquid, inserted via drilled holes. It's certainly better than it was. Just been detailing a few bits like the wheel wells and the rotor hubs. Some other additions to do then masks the windows and then see what it looks like under a coat of primer.

I should add: this has been a fun build so far, even with the dust problem.

Thank you all for the support. Not had much chance to work on this. There's primer on now. Hopefully I'll find some time to do the decals
