Allen you've seem to the master builder of all things that have wings going in circles. I've only build one chopper, a CH-47, and I don't remember it being a lot of fun. I do have a OH-13 Sioux in the stash so I may try doing another one. You really do excellent work on these.

Thanks Tom, have a go, although I think they may not be the easiest to build, I have a couple to do in 1/72 !

Some decals on, a bit more black on its back and some masking on the rotor ready for metalizer leading edge.

Looking great Allan - those decals are spectacular - great choice - and execution is very good indeed!

Thanks Paul, MM 1402 on rotor, stripy decals on tail rotor and port side with all the decals.

That my friend is some amazing decal work ! It sort of reminds me of the B-24 "A Dragon and his Tail" with the art work going down the whole side of the airframe...

Thanks Louis, you're right, they do look good, the rotor now needs a bit more paint on the hub !

Looking fantastic Allan. Decals are very nice and the details on the rotors are looking good.

Fantastic chopper, Allan. How were the decals to fix? Difficult?
Allan J Withers said 6 years, 2 months ago:

Thanks Ferry, ---------------

Thanks David, the decals are a little thick with the different layers of color, put on with Future as usual and some help from Mr Mark Softer and a pointy stick in places !

Hello there Allan. Any updates on the rotor ?
From what I have seen with the rest of the building it's going to be fantastic !
Allan J Withers said 6 years, 1 month ago:

Thanks Louis, the rotor is painted, a few details added, masking on ready for some Xtra flat.
