Allan you are starting another amazing build, and a welcome addition to the YOC . You're a modeling machine... Looks great my friend, as all of your builds do.
Thank you Louis, a bit more paint on.

Allan, another addition to the Withers World of Whirlybirds! I always look forward to your whop-whop collection!
Thank you Bernard.
That's another interesting chopper Allan. Looking forward to this build in the YOC group.
Thanks Ferry.

The detail painting on the consoles looks fantastic !
Thanks Louis, done with a silver pencil !
I added some wire mesh, twice, only got one bit right first time, too much super glue around the edges of the mesh so I recessed the edges of the openings, painted black inside the tail, tacked the interior to one fuselage side, then glued both sides together, getting there !

Your chopper is looking good my friend ! Nice photos of your progress. Thanks for the updates.
Thanks Louis, the interior didn't fit as well as I thought, needed some adjustment, the fuselage needs some filling for the canopy to fit, not one of Italeri's better kits !
I'm sure that you will get it all sorted out my friend... Some kits fight you a little more than others do... It will turn out great in the end.
Wire mesh second time around, more adjustment of window frames and touch up of interior paint, getting there !
