Allan,
I remember building that kit when it was first released. I put it together and brush painted it in an afternoon. Sure brings back some fond memories.
Thanks for looking Scott.
Canopy masked, some red on the tail planes, almost ready for the green !

Some masking on the red, a coat of green on with a bit of filling needed and drilling out the rear of the rocket pods !

A bit of touching up, a final coat of green and the masking removed ready for some Pledge and the decals !

Looking good - I like the drilling of the pods, it's that sort of attention to detail that makes all the difference!
Thanks Erik, skids on and needing a bit of paint !
This little chopper has all of the trademarks of an Allan Withers build... Crystal clear canopy, 1/72 scale, and flawless paint ! I can always pick your work out from others. Looks great my friend...and drilling out the rocket pods was a very nice touch.
Thank you Louis.
Skids painted and a first coat of Pledge !
I'll bet it will come to life as soon as you install the rotors... Looking good Allan.
Thanks Louis, a bit lifeless at the moment !
Shiny! looking forward to the finished chopper. Well done so far especially with an old kit! '68 molds as far as I recall.
Thanks Erik, yes 1968 molds 1988 box, decals are on, needs a coat of flat clear and some detailing !
Looks great Allan, keep 'em coming!
