My latest offering will be my first helicopter. 🙂

Guy Rump

Great start!

Guy Rump
A bit more done on the cockpit and sprayed the interior with Vallejo Model Air Gun Metal. 🙂

Thanks for the kind comment J35J, I appreciate it. 👍

Hajo Lippke
I like the cockpit! But are you sure with the grey colour for the backside and top of the instrument panel?

Guy Rump
Cockpit and main engine fitted to one side of the fuselage. 🙂

I agree with you Hajo, I have painted the top and back of the instrument panel (where there are no decals) black. I had intended to use a darker grey but the one I did use was quite light. 👍

It's been a while since I have showed anything moving the Puma forward. Gloss varnish added and decals applied. Next will be the rotors etc. 🙂

Many thanks Laurent for your kind comment. 👍

Now completed, my first helicopter. An old tooling but went together relatively well except the canopy which was not great. Apart from that, an enjoyable build. 🙂

István Szücs
Interesting project!

J35J
I'm in for the flash flesta 😅👍🏻

Robert Podkoński
Make yourself comfortable, István and J35J. This will be surely a long party... 😉

István Szücs
Robert, almost you'd build an A-Model kit

Robert Podkoński
Believe me, István, A-model kits are much more modeller-friendly than Mach 2... Take a look here, for example: modelingmadness.com/..korean/us/hammx2.htm

Ben M
Another member of the non-aligned movement.

Marko
That's something to be excited about. Mach2 kits don't have the reputation of being shaking kits. 👍

Martin
As I said on the project, I wish you luck with this, it is something you seldom see, but it looks cool in the end. It is quite a long time ago when I did mine - al the best!

and, so far it does not look that bad for a mach2

S M
Gotta see this! 😄

John Hughes
This looks very Gerry Anderson, so I'm in!

Robert Podkoński
What an audience I have... I feel a bit under pressure now 😉 @Martin - you're right, at least the polistyrene seems to be of a good quality.

Guy Rump
I'm watching as well Robert 🙂 👍

Ekki
And me.

Robert Podkoński
Feel warmly welcomed, Mates!

Mid Franconian
Extra like for the striking project title 😂! I expected an old KP kit first…

Bruce Huxtable
Soo many seams.... Watching this tutorial for sure 😉. OMG, Robert, that's quite a critique of MACH, kits.... Good Luck!

Ben M
It's such a cool subject, I remember seeing it in my dads airplane books when I was young.

Ludvík Kružík
Robert, once again you have chosen a great topic. The French experimental jet powered Leduc aircraft looked really futuristic at the time of its creation.
I wish you strong nerves and a lot of fun building your model!

Robert Podkoński
Now I feel even more pressure 😉 ... @Bruce - I know what I am talking about, I have completed a few models from both producers already 😉 @Ludvik - I was lucky enough to see both Leduc 010 and 022 in Le Bourget museum and they still look futuristic imho 🙂

Palo M
Grabbing a sear

Robert Podkoński
Welcome, Palo!

Ludvík Kružík
He certainly wouldn't be a disgrace as a space fighter in Star Wars. 😄

The photos of the kit parts show that you really have a lot of work ahead of you.

John Hughes
Not Star Wars, more Flash Gordon by the looks of those sprues!

Neil
Hi Robert, Haha! 'da Putty Party'... Love it!... Following with great interest 🙂

Robert Podkoński
Feel welcomed to the party, Neil - every party needs a DJ 😄

Neil
Thanks Robert. I'm there mate! 🎧🤘🎶

Ben M
Those parts look gloriously terrible

Robert Podkoński
Still, the plastic is workable, Ben. As far as I have checked: it can be filed, filled, and glued... So, there is hope... 😄

Ben M
I looked in the stash and I have a mach2 kit I bought when I was young and foolish.

Robert Podkoński
I have five, not counting this one... Hmm...the testimony of what kind of mental disease it is? Nothwithstanding, only Mach 2 offered models of some exotic planes, like X-24.

gorby
I wish you luck Robert. Your going to need it (and probably a stiff drink or four). 😉
Was the kit mould made from soap? 😄

Robert Podkoński
Thanks for your encouraging words, Gorby! ... It seems probable, taking into account that in some Mach 2 kits the material itself is "soapy"... 😄

Guy Rump
Another Japanese WW2 aircraft for my stable. 🙂

Nicolas

Transall NG
Hello Guy,
You may try fishing wire "UNI-Caenis 20 Den Black" for your next antennas wire : it is like spandex, has some elasticity, and doesn't need to be stretched so mast doesn't bend.
It is also very convincing for 1/72 : i can't see it if i don't wear my glasses...
Fine work !

Guy Rump
Hi Transall NG, many thanks for your kind comment and tip for an improved method for antenna wire, I'll definitely be giving it a go in the near future! 👍
