topgear29 Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 This is my replacement for my Westland Scout that just was not hacking it. This is just going to be a strait out of the box build. Just so I can get something finished.Sorry for the mess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heloman1 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 It's quite a nice little kit and a great choice for a replacement. Mine bogged down and is sat on the shelf of Dooooooooooooom! Colin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgear29 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Well started buy drilling out the holes for the stubby wings. Then glued the two half’s of the airframe together. The fit was ok but there was a bit of sanding to do. . At this point I decide the I was just going to do the bird clean so it was fill in the holes I had drilled with Mr surface. The came the problem the two cover parts for the rear of the tail just did not fit correct so out with the putty and the sanding sticks. Looks a bit of a mess but hopefully I might get there in the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintsPhil Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Always fancied one of these, after spending hours playing the game when I was younger, had no idea what the kit was like though, doesn't look too bad... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 (edited) I like the look of this machine have tried to order it several times from Models R Go without sucess. I may pick one up at the Nationals. Your cockpit detailing looks excellent, is it all hand painted or are there some decals in there? I also have the same set of Vallejo RLM paints, good aren't they?

topgear29 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 Hi Nigel unfortunately there are no decals for the cockpit. I got this kit from Models R Go about ten days ago as it is on sale for £4.99 on their Web Site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nigel Heath Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 No decals; then you painting technique is most impressive. I have tried to order it on their website but when I go to the checkout I am informed that my basket is empty, despite getting a message saying that it had been added to my basket.

topgear29 Posted August 13, 2013 Author Share Posted August 13, 2013 I will be honest with you I have never used their web sit to order I just ring them. They are very helpful and what ever I order is delivered in two to three days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
