Alexandros Marinos AuthorSunday and some basic progress was done with the cabin and tail cone section!

Alexandros Marinos AuthorMore progress,
-Masking of clear parts with Eduard masks
-Some details on the main fuselage were not suitable for the variant -B so I removed them but also added some others from my spare parts
-Resque hoist provided by Italeri is suitable for -A variant only,so I made another from my spare box which is almost the correct one (will add some wiring also in the end)
-Added seatbelts on the seats

Michael KohlGreat metal effect on the double radial engine, but very basic in detail. 😉
Ok, kidding aside. Lovely progress. I am in for the ride.

Alexandros Marinos AuthorBack on the bench and I found the time to:
-Add the main landing system with hydraulic lines from tin wire
-Add the low grille on the engine cover despite the fact that Italeri missed that part in the instructions
-Fill a gup (maybe missed spot at the factory) with evergreen rod at the tail cone section
-Add the resque hoist and and it's wiring
-Prepared the main and tail rotor blades
-For the end I primed the model with black 1500 finishing surfacer
That's for today!
