Already started a bit of assembly and painting before taking this shot, guess I was a bit impatient 😄

Interior finished. Not really visible here, but I feel like the decals are slightly larger than they are supposed to be. Especially the sign on the back wall should go on a position where it definitely does not fit.

Somehow I always manage to screw up the transparent parts!

Those are some nice gaps you've got there. Would be a shame...

I already know it's not going to be the best looking Alouette III, but eh, perfection is boring anyways.

Numerous layers of paint later and we're still not done.

I picked this one up randomly at a model store in a city nearby. It's my first helicopter in decades, let's see how it goes...

And she's finished. As predicted, it's not the best looking Alouette ever, but it sure was (mostly) fun to build and also a learning experience.

Thanks everyone 🙂
I should add that she somehow manages to look better and worse IRL than on the pictures. I guess that's because of lighting and my fantastic (lol) photography skills. I think I'll try her again someday, but a different version.
