cardiff guy Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 (edited) This kit is The Revell 1/72 kit and is getting a bit scarce right now, for me this is a rare helicopter build. I have built a machine belonging to HMS Devonshire using various resin improvement sets, model decals and crew from PJ products. I also did some surgery on the nose to better represent an earlier model. Thanks for looking, I hope you liker it.

Alpha Delta 210 Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Great job. She looks wonderful with the Series 1 Landie. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyWessex Posted December 29, 2022 Share Posted December 29, 2022 Possibly the best representation of this kit I have seen to date. The modified HAS.2 nose if very convincing. I tried something similar, but doesn't look half as good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilspen Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 One of my favourite cabs, brilliantly done. Is the Landrover from the Airfix Bloodhound set? Good work on that too. Cheers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAVY870 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Wessex and Land Rover, two examples of fine English engineering. Also known to leak fluids at similar rates. Damn fine build. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows maybe we could imagine it's Gibraltar or Malta 😜 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete in Lincs Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Very nicely done Wessex. If you get a minute a bit of bent wire could represent the Pitot up above the RH sliding door. It's absence is screaming at me! (Sorry, But I started my career on HC 2's decades ago. Lovely machines). 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for pointing it out, The plastic one was there but my sausage fingers knocked it off and I forgot to replace it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
