Nice start Tammy, but be careful with the clearpart! Its literally a magnet for scratches!
I´m exited how this will turn out!😄

Thanks Guys. Not sure about this one though. I think I will stick to planes.....

Looking great! I've built a couple of helicopters and plan on finishing two more (just to have a "complete set" of RCAF, RCN, Cdn Army and CF helis), but I agree with you, I much prefer building airplanes!

Thanks Xenia. This Bell will be in the Aussie 161 Reece Squadron markings . I think one Possum will be enough for me....

Lookin' great! But I must say that the kit looks just like an upscaled version of the Bell that I built in 1:72. The breakdown of the parts n' such is more or less the same.

Hey Tammy, stick with it! I very nearly gave up on this one but loved it when it was finished. I've got pics on here if you wanna look. Looking good so far!

Great progress, Tammy! I love the wiring of the instrument panel. May I "steel" this for my 1:35 Sioux?

Finally finished the bell. Easy to build, but hard to keep it together the delicate little flower. Over and out Possum 404.....

Hi Tammy,
I'm really impressed!
If you are doing so on in the future, I will hide me in the outback!!
Well done model.
Indeed!!

Beautiful job, I cant believe this is your second model. Can't you put some glue all over the canopy to make me feel better! Whats next?

Thanks all
@bill. That was my first attempt at making the seat belts..uggh and the headsets you can have them they were a headache. No it was a fun build just frustrating when the bits kept breaking off and had to be glued 4 or 5 times. It is on the shelf and staying there until I decide to complete the diorama

"Frustrating" that's a word modellers know well as well as "bits breaking off". We all do it, thats part of modelling. Where possible build modules for later assesmbly and paint modules separately if it reduces handling.

Thanks Hunter. This is my second build, I have enjoyed the variety and learning new skills on both my first builds, I am now back to a plane. Who knows I might try a tank one day.😉
