  1. Hello from the shed. As the model I'm making at the moment is a big one and will take some time to finish, I've decided to show a few of my older builds while I continue with it. I made this Special Hobby CH-37 a few years back. It appealed because of its insect like appearence. The kit does not have any internal detailing other than the cockpit and as I wanted to cut the front doors off to display in the open position I raided the spares box for some troop seats. These constituted a rudimentry cabin interior. I also replaced the moulded grills in the engine cowlings with fine metal mesh. I had read that the tanks provided in the kit were the wrong shape and size so purchased aftermarket items from Rotorcraft. The doors were detailed using plastic card and items from the spares box . The rotor head recieved a bit of detailing as well. The side door was cut in half and displayed in the open position. A thoroughly enjoyable build. Such a shame the cargo doors are not supplied separated from the fuselage sides as the gaping front end is one of the main features of this aircraft. Its finished using Xrtracolor enamals and varnishes, with a little Flory wash to bring out the panel details. Decals from the kit. The CH-37 was in service for ten years and saw active duty in both the Korean and Vietnam wars, It was also one of the last in service piston engined helicopters. Here's a few Pics, Hope you like it Thanks for looking. Pete
