Italeri 1/72 Wessex Has3


Recommended Posts

Straight out of the box ,not to much to say about it .It went together pretty well.very little filling and sanding.Smaller parts are becoming a real pain because of the meds and shoval fingers.Once iv complaeted my stash of 1/72 i wont be buying anymore.Colour went on great ,only took 3 coats with no runs,but i think its to dark compaired to the photos of it.Once again the more i handled it the more that fell off.(does glue go off????),and lost a few of the antennas.Clear plastics didnt frost over and fitted pretty good with the exception of a small gap under the windscreen(used pvc glue to fill and you cant notice it)One wheel started to buckle as i was taking photos dont know if it was my heavy hand or weak joint.All in all a canny build for me, onwards n upwards.Thanks for looking.

Hi,

this kit is supposed to be rather good, like the whole H-34 series. So I hope you had a good time building it!

It is an impressive chopper and you have managed to portray this! Well done!

On your next helicopter model, try and glue the wheels vertical and parallel to each other.

Other than that, I really like it,

Waheey! A Pusser's Wezzie!. I can sympathise with the fingers. I've got arthritis in mine and have had a few issues of late. But; if you can hold a stottie try 1/32 scale. Just be careful with the pease pudding.
