Spitfire31 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Magnificent H-21/Vertol 44, on a very convincing base! The Vertol 44, with floatation gear, was also Sweden's first military helicopter, of course with the nickname 'Bananen': Kind regards, Joachim 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold55 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Great build! Curios as to what model and scale this is as I have a SH one in my stash but haven't had the courage to start it yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AW - The base is made of what is call in this country Japanese foot steps they are made of PVC imitating flat stone .These items are very convinient to be used in rough ground scene for vehicules or unprepared landing zone for aircraft or helicopters.. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
