As soon as I finish one of my 3 current projects (2 of them ar nearly done) I will start with this little helicopter.

Nicolas
The build startet this weekend.

As I am covid positive (fortunately only with very mild syntomas) I had some time to build again today. So far I am positively surprised by the accuracy of fit. There are no locator pins, but I can now click the fuselage and cockpit together and even the tail section holds without glue.

Nicolas
I would like to do some rivets on the exteriour, but I couldn't find some good drawings. If somebody has a hint I would be grateful.

Nicolas
Today I started installing the controls. Doing so I noticed, the collectiv controls are missinh in the kit. So I started scratchbuilding them after photos. Also fabricated and installed blinds for the paxes.

Started some work on the exteriour.

Freak
Interesting project! Love the WIP pics and demo of various detailing techniques.

Nicolas
Hi Freak, welcome on board.

Shar Dipree
I have the same kit too. I'm really looking forward to your results. Following. 🙂

Hi Shar, welcome.

Łukasz Gliński
Cool, will watch. Still afraid to start mine 😄

Nicolas
Welcome Łukasz, there is no reason to be afraid. The fit seams quite good, and the missing details is somthin one can improve. 😉

Ooooh! I'd like to follow this. I've built one in 1/72, this must be huge.

John Hughes
Well, okay, Gorby, but follow at your own risk. It is a mine clearing vehicle, after all.

😄 😄 😄
Should be safe enough. At 150 tons you're going to know which bit it's cleared. 😄

Oh wow. Ive never heard of this thing before! When I saw the first picture I thought at first must be an alternate history tank. Following with interest!

Ekki

Me too. Nice progress 👍

Guy Rump
Looking good, following. 👍

Nicolas
I'll take a seat.

Guy Rump
I forgot to put this in the ideas so it is starting "in progress".

Made a start with the cockpit and some weight in the nose, hopefully it's enough. 🙂
