Les Moore Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I saw one of these on a friend's page, and wanted one for my collection. The kit was dated 1978...not my favorite year, but thats another story. Built OOB all decals are from the blister pack. Painted with MM enamels and tape seat belts added. This is #13 for the year. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vultures1 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Nice job on an older kit - well done! 13 builds by the end of March is pretty impressive too!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Delta 210 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Looks great! No matter how I tried, I couldn't get mine to sit on its skids! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Moore Posted March 31, 2017 Author Share Posted March 31, 2017 (edited) Alpha Delta...I drilled the skid's "holes" a bit deeper and added weight to the cockpit behind the seats where it was hidden. I had to re-glue one side of the skids 3x to get it to stay. Not an easy build, but then again its 1978 technology.

Simon382 Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 Very nice! Brings back happy memories of my time in the RAF so thanks. This along with a PUMA is crying out for a decent 1/48 kit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albamac Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Hi Les, You have produced a nice model from old technology. As the real Gazelle sold very well you could have made options from various Air Forces too. A great workhorse but I would like to see a more modern kit available - we can only hope ha ha. Keep up the excellent work. Cheers albamac........(frustrated Norseman). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 Nice Les, its good to see one in camo rather than the red & white training scheme, improves them no end I reckon. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
