Sikorsky SH-3H Sea King 1/72 Fujimi/Testors

[hsr]

Continuing my series of ASW helicopters this is my build of the Fujimi/Testor's kit of the Sikorsky SH-3H Sea King. The kit is an early 80s molding from Fujimi and is a bit crude by today's standard, about on par with Hasegawa kits of that era. This was pretty much OOB with the exception of a set of Microsacle 72-390 decals. The kit decals were nice but, were pretty old and had gone "stale". The Microscale decals were excellent with no silvering. There is an Eduard interior set (72256), but it is impossible to find, even on Ebay. On the whole a pleasant 17 day build.

 

So on to the pictures;

 

Next up is an MH-60R StrikeHawk using the Hobby Boss SH-60B kit and the Olimp conversion set.

 

Enjoy

Excellent work although I reccomend a tail oleo change as that one has clearly bottomed out 🤣🤣

I broke it off at least 3 times, so that might have contributed to the problem

 

Thanks

I have found that parts will break off until they can't be properly glued back. They they are attached forever. Usually after 3 times I will leave them off until the end.
