Nice heli, one of my favorites. A shame the cockpit is barely recognizable in the pics. Will you do some scratchbuilding to this one? On mine (revell 1:144) I've detailed a little on the engines, just to correct some obvious mistake.

Probably will not do any scratchbuilding.

hello Ed, I'd suggest you take your time constructing your next model. For the painting of the rotorblades, you can make use of painting tape (the gold version for delicate surfaces, this one sticks less, like tamiyatape, but cheaper) It can be helpfull to achieve straight lines. With regards to the camo you could buy some prittbuddy, posterbuddy, blutack or the like, it will be helpfull to take control of the overspray. Otherwise some sanding and dryfitting with regards to the engine exhausts (which are fitted upside down by the way) and the stabilizers on the the tail (to get rid of the hight difference there). with kind regards,
