27 - 1/48 Fuji Aerospatiale Alouette III
I got this kit with the cockpit started but really like this helicopter so I wanted to do something nice and interesting. I decided to do the interesting scheme of the Malasian Air force.
Was a lot of fun masking and painting this one up. Enjoyed the build but it is an old kit so a few issues.
Nothing that can't be overcome though.
Neat work, Anthony, nice looking little helicopter.
Thanks so much George, yes it's a nice Helo the Alo.
Amazing job and a very cool scheme, Anthony!
Happy New Year!
Thanks a Lot Spiros, appreciate the comment - Happy new year to you as well.
Nice work on this one. I’ve always wanted to do one of those in Rhodesian guise.
Hi John, this one was actually a practise run for a 1/72 Rhodesian K-Car I'm almost finishing up with now. I've got a build log for it here - https://imodeler.com/groups/helicopters/forum/topic/1-72-alouette-iii-customised-to-a-k-car/
Unfortunately the 1/72 HELLer kit is an absolute dog so it's not come out like I wanted. Will post updates on it soon.
You did an amazing job on this Alouette III, Anthony @anthonyricco
To me it was always one of the nicest helicopter which served in the Netherlands, your build brings back some nice memories.
Happy New Year.
Thanks so much John, yes it really is an amazing and versatile helicopter and. very good looking. And the sound it makes is incredible.
Oh, very nice work indeed Anthony! 👍 Great looking "choppa"! 😁
Thanks so much Gary. Yeah she is a good looking helo, and an interesting scheme.
Great work Anthony. The Alouette is a nice looking helicopter, and your model shows it well.
Thanks a lot George, year it is a really nice looking chopper, it does help make my build look a bit better haha.
I agree, nice looking whirlybird, Anthony!
Thanks so much Robert, appreciate it.
Very nice build, well done!
Thanks so much Greg, appreciate the comment.
Nicely done Anthony!
Thanks Robert
For a kit originally first released in the 60's, you have done a great job on the build and the finish on the paint scheme. 👍
Thanks a lot Bob, was not as bad as the Heller 1/72 one I'm busy with - thats got a terrible fit.
