1/72 , built sometime before 2016, I modified the engine intakes, the cabin ceiling and antennae posts and in 2021 I narrowed the rotor blades.

  1. I nearly always recognize your work before I see your name on the post Allen , always a pleasure to see such clean precise modeling. Nice colour scheme as well.
    Cheers.

  2. Great work, Allan. I’m still amazed that thing flies.

  3. Another great looking Withers helo!

  4. Looking very good, Allan @kalamazoo
    Rotor blades look much better this way.

  5. I like the way it looks with the blades narrowed. Good job.

  6. It definitely looks like a Chinook, Allan, it’s a shame they’re so noisy.

  7. Excellent work on a very nice Italeri kit. Enough details yet not a lot parts for a good sized helo. Love the finish and yes another Allan Withers quality helo. I love following your work. Thanks for sharing. I have so many helo's to build and yet have not started one this year, as I was promising my self to at least build one a year.

  8. Aussie Awesomeness 🦘

  9. Another lovely build from down under!

  10. Great looking CH 47C, Allan (@kalamazoo) - the Italeri kit looks very nice.
    Nice work with the narrowed rotor blades - I'd be afraid that I'd end up with sabre-toothed blades 🙂
