stevej60 Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Hi folk's number two for me is Airfix's newish tool kit.It popped up on ebay for twelve quid minus the Norwegian decal's but the RAF scheme is quite nice and I might try and find some other decal's for it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Starfighter Decals recommend this kit for just that purpose - and of course they do some nice decals for it as well..... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well as it happens I was thinking of making it a double build Craig with the original SH-3 as well I have one more idea for scrathbuilding the missing glass otherwise the kits never going to be built. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank's HB,here's the box content's but I've started the Mi-8 first,when I decided to do a Sea King I bid on this and a Fujimi S3H but forgot about it once this was bought,just popped on E-bay to find a payment reminder for the Fujimi kit which finished at a strange £13:69 this morning so another one on the way! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted July 7, 2020 Author Share Posted July 7, 2020 Evening folk's with the Mi-8 complete time to look at the Sea King,now I'm certainly notan expert so I've done the interior assembly as Airfix suggest but I would assume a dozen different interior fits for these airframes.Here's the interior ready for paint. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted July 12, 2020 Author Share Posted July 12, 2020 Evening folk's,out with the paint for this one as usual a hundred photos gives a hundred different interiors and other modellers takes on the interior so just to give it a busy look here's mine I'm sure the purists will see faults I'm not convinced this layout is correct for this machine but it is what it is. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
