milktrip Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 Hello, I would like to present my 1/72 SA.330 Puma in Bristow’s livery. Based around Sumburgh, Shetland & Dyce, Aberdeen circa 1979. Airfix kit with Whirlybirds resin conversion for the radar and sponsons. Decals were a mix from my spares. Certainly not my best effort but I am pleased with it. Thanks for looking Aaron 54 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorbertBu Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Unbelievable what you have done with that old Airfix kit. Interesting livery also. I like the model very much! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timbo88 Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Excellent work, very impressed with your conversion of the Airfix Puma. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbofan Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Hi Aaron, Generally I'm not into helicopters much but I like this one! Nice level of detail and subtle weathering gives it a real workhorse look, very impressed! Cheers, Ian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Very nice. Whoever designed that nose radar fit wasn't too concerned with the aethstetics. Function over Form! I have the Heller Bobcat 1/72 Super Puma in the Bristows scheme. Hope it comes out as good as this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
