Good evening all
So here is my submission, albeit it might be a week or two before I get started as I want to get my house finished.
I have to say a big thanks again to Andy aka The Smythe Meister for sending me this kit for gratis last May - although it may be something of a double edged sword
........
.........because it meant I had no excuse not to join in with the GB and yet it's my first helicopter and it's the smallest scale kit I have built since coming back to the hobby.....
.....what can possibly go wrong I ask you!????!:smiling5:
So according to Scalemates this is a 2016 re boxing of their 1994 release. The kit is still in the plastic as I don't want to lose any parts but it looks ok to my eye....not that I know what I'm looking at!! :tired::tired:
The kit comes with one set of markings for a chopper (is that an acceptable word in the modelling fraternity??) from the 2nd Second Platoon aka "Wasps" of the 116th Assault Helicopter Company aka "Hornets".
This is certainly the first 'original' Revell' kit I have built since coming back to the hobby - my Pak 40s excluded as they were originally Italeri moulds - and the manual looks very nice at first review but time will tell.
Anyway enough waffle from me.....the usual pictures are below.
