You are moving right along on this helo, Allan (@kalamazoo). I don't build many of them, but I really like the complexity of helicopters. I have a small plastic bin where I put the loose parts for the kit I am building, and still manage to misplace parts all the time. It is a mystery of modern science how this can happen.
Thanks my friends, Spiros, John and George, a case of miss identity with these seats, --------- some masking and paint around the doors, door openings and exhausts.

You are doing an exceptional job on this (seemingly complex ?) kit my friend @kalamazoo!
Thanks Spiros, it's a bit tricky, -------- more masking and some XF 1 on the fuselage and doors, a second coat of MM 34087 on the rotor blades.

Always excited to see the final unmasking with all the layers built up.
Proceeding superbly, my friend @kalamazoo!
You are progressing nicely here, Allan @kalamazoo
Thanks my friends, Erik, Spiros and John, ------- some more paint, green and black with the doors sitting loose.
Nice paintwork on this interesting scheme, Allan @kalamazoo
Nice paintwork, a really great scheme, my friend @kalamazoo!
Looks great so far, Allan @kalamazoo . I see the mixed masking technique you use along the way is quite similar to what I was trying out with my Lynx (my first completed helicopter ever). Helicopters are a challenge as the shapes and openings are quite different from most other aircraft. I really like those RAAF camo colors and how you did the masking with silly putty(?) or blue tack(?). Looking forward to seeing more.
Thanks John, Spiros and Colin, blu-tack, your Lynx looks good, --------- the three exhausts in with plastic sheet to hold them.
Nice fitting of the exhausts, my friend @kalamazoo!
Nice work on the exhausts, Allan @kalamazoo
Thanks Spiros and John, ------ Colin, these were not used by the RAAF, only Navy and Army, ---------- a bit of MM 30219 on a few things.
