Here is the little bell 47 Iam building for my wife....
She saw this little simple model I built for a friend who has 2 ful size ones and said she wanted one aswell....in metalic blue, not scale LOL
The kit itself if really simple, OK level of detail, the real one is very simple anyway. The boom is well captured if a little chunky but to replicate the tubular frame in 1/72 would be very difficult to do "scale"
The cabin itself is also quite bare, just like the real one but looks the part.
The boom was rather fiddly to build but once tacked into place thin cement sorted it out.
I have a 1/35 Bell 47 in the stach I wanted to build for her but no......the 1/72 is "qute" LOL
It should be a nice fast build, I invested maybe 2 hours and the major parts are ready to paint.
