moaning dolphin Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Looking good so far, and fair play for going with the Forth Road Bridge gear. It was a right pain to fit in real life so hats off to you! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wafu Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 Really sorry guys but all modelling stopped ten days ago with the refurbishment of my bathroom. Last room in the house to do so the sense of fulfilment is pushing me on and the fact my wife and kids have made "comments" to the effect of me always working on the house. Anyway work on this and my Bagger will resume v/soon. I have a GPMG thanks to Breaker and the photos to build a chaff and flare thanks to a Windy and Colin. Best I get on with it then. Cheers the woo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wafu Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 This is the second time I've done this cos my stupid computer crashed. Anyway, after two days of paint and decals this is my first offering in the Build. The paint went well and by last night I was pleased as I left the workshop but by this afternoon I was cursing the different decals I had used. They did everything you don't want decals to do, silvered, split, cracked and just didn't settle. Sorry about the quality of the photographs but the Ipad isn't up to much. Next thing after my return home is the Lego staging to support the 1,2 and 5 main rotor blades while I workout the Blade Folding kit. More fun to follow. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Nice paint job/weathering. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wafu Posted April 3, 2015 Author Share Posted April 3, 2015 Back again, I'm desperate to get this finished before Monday night so I've had a mad evening bringing things together. After making a Lego jig for the main blades the Forth Road Bridge is added. Onward, Weathering added, the main and tail blades painted and added. the F.R. gear in colour but not in its final glory. Bag added as well as the barn door FOD Guard. So the final push is close. In the words of Arnie " I'll be back" 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wafu Posted April 4, 2015 Author Share Posted April 4, 2015 Finished.........YIPEEEEEEE Done as much as I can. the photos have been taken as the microsol drys.. Still cursing the decals silvering... Hope you like it, the old Mk2 Pinger from 706 Squadron taken and given a new paint job, re-roled and sent back into the fleet. I first came across this aircraft on the Invincible in 1985 and couldn't get my head round the plastic bag strapped to the side of this Sea King. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
