Nice one Peter, 1/24 will make a large finished model, especially those rotor blades.

Nice start Peter,


do you build it strait out of the box or do you have some after market parts for it.


Which version are you building?


Got one in the stash to for the SSIG


Cheers Richi

Nice choice Peter , if I was going to join in on the large scale 1/24 SIG build this was what I would have gone for , it makes an impressive model . cheers tony

Nice cabin peter , liking the belts , cheers tony

 

[peterairfix]

I think this one will be a fairly quick and easy build as i have the cabin finished and the engine and rotor blades this one hasn't got many parts but its a delight to build.

Looking good Peter

 

[flyjoe180]

Did the pilot sneak through the medical selection stage, he looks a tad tall or is he not sitting correctly? Looks good so far Peter. That tin of paint has seen better days.

 

[peterairfix]

Apologies for big jump but this will be the last pics before completion its been quick as there arn't many parts, this is a good kit and goes together well and has plenty of scope for more detail.
