That is rather nice, sir. Well done.

(The kit glue works quite well for sticking on broken bits. I speak from experience. Put a puddle of it down onto a surface, carefully dip the end of the broken bit in, then put it in place. Hold for a minute, let go. You may Ned to realign it from time to time until it sets up, but it'll work.)

(Or you could cheat and use super glue. :D )

Thank you all very much.

The canopy looks rather rough in close up, I think I overthinned the desert yellow, and although it had 3 or 4 coats, it's still pretty see through. With the paint being like brown water, it bled under the masking tape on the canopy. I cleaned it up best I could, using a cocktail stick, but it didn't leave a nice crisp edge.

Also the pitot tube didn't survive being removed from the sprue, so I left it off.

Oh well, back to my entry for the helicopter group build now. Try for 3 finished kits.

Matt
