Well blow me it’s a finished Ka-27 Helix ( A flying piano in 1/48 ).

Hi Johnny

Wow I was gonna say your chopper turned out well, but then realised Ced might read it and thought better of it !!!

Seriously great work fella and you should be very proud the model looks amazing. I do like the look of these unusual machines.

Fantastic job.

All the best

Chris

Impressive model indeed, very Helix like, very well done indeed. Love it.

 

Although I can agree with @IGKent that in comparison with the pictures above, it does not look similarly "clean" I can recall a somewhat grubbier Helix around 10 years ago when I boarded a Russian Warship at a Navy day!

The dirtiest Helix in the Russian fleet!   Fantastic weathering, great seat belts.  You nailed it.  Makes me want to go out and buy one.  

Thank you. Get one, you won’t be sorry.

Great! Looks realistic. :thumbsup: But it seems to me, with weathering - bust. More like a museum exhibit.

Thanks. I tend to go for extremes. Realism in my eyes is sometimes a little boring so I try and accentuate certain features and run with them. I guess I comes from growing up on Tamiya catalogues. 😇

For your first chopper you chose a very peculiar beast. Happy to see something "new".

Excellent job, nice detailing and weathering.
