helios16v Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Was looking for a quickie job to finish out 2020...and this one is a perfect fit. No usable decals in the kit, so this one will just be an assemble and paint. Think of it as a New Year's Blitzbuild. [/url 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 I didn't know Heller did this kit, love the recycled plastic windows, great to see I'm not the only one who does this. Best of luck Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeroenS Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Hi @helios16v, how's our only "Space" contestant doing? I hope you can get her out of orbit, into the gallery 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 Stalled out for the moment...been distracted w/ guitar stuff. I was looking at it on the bench this morning, so hoping to maybe make some headway on it after an endurance race tomorrow afternoon. Need to get the last bits on the OV-1B and get her in some paint too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 There's absolutely no pressure @helios16v but as Jeroen said your are 100% of our space builds, I was frightened being 50% of the sailing ships ! It's a good job you've got such broad shoulders, were right behind you Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 Yeah, I didn't realize I was flying solo in the spacey department until Jeroen mentioned it. I should be ok. Most of the assembly is done...there isn't much to it. Just need to finish up windows, do a couple antenna and final paint. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helios16v Posted February 14, 2021 Author Share Posted February 14, 2021 Final paint is on. Going to let it dry for a couple hours then do some final detail painting....then off to the gallery just under the wire. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Brilliant, congratulations @helios16v 100% completion for the Space section on the Heller Classic GB. "One small step for man, one giant leap for modelling kind !" Apologies Mr Armstrong I couldn't resist it ! Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
