Łukasz GlińskiNice build! It's tiny indeed, I finished mine couple of years ago and I wish it looked so well
Album info
Hey everyone. In the 72 scale, this is one of the smallest heli's alongside with Kiowa and Sioux. 49 parts in total, and a 9 cm body. Yet it's not as easy as it sounds. Parts are quite small, you have to be careful for not losing or breaking them (especially the main canopy)
Other than not actually being a %100 accurate kit at all, there's a slight sitting problem with interior parts. No matter what you do, there will be a little gap. It's because that the main body is a little large for the interior parts to fit. Improved tinkering skill required, which i lack a bit 🙂
Used Humbrol 33 for pre-shade, 2:1 mix of 155 + 159 for main coat, 3 coats of Clear (2 before & 1 after decaling) and a single Matt Cote for the finish touch. Used several colored dry pastels here and there as well for enrichment.
Hope you enjoy, any comments are welcome!
