Gloss base-coat gives it a 'toy-look', but works well for the decals

I didn't know if rivets would be needed but your pictures say: YES!
Nice work!

Bart Meeldijk
Thanks all! @Ice Not all as straight/tight as they should be...😉 @Marc - this one straight out of the box

@Gorbygould: thanks very much. Too small/complex pattern to airbrush for me, so I did it with the old-fashioned brush

looks really good. i am hopeless with a brush for anything bigger than 1 mm .

Thanks! Totally agree, although Malasia and Iran do good 'camo paintjobs' too 😉

Very striking camo.

Thanks! Still a bit sloppy here and there, but it's getting there. I am scratch-upgrading the rotor as well, Airfix didn't put much detail in that area. Next up: first coating and decals. Also trying to think of a cool way to recreate the external cargohook/undersling. All suggestions are welcome! 😉

looking good so far. Will you also add a dark grey wash on the white parts?

Mike Daniels
Look forward to seeing the final result. As you say, Eduard produce some terrific add-ons.

@Bart: definately! This is only the first layer.
@Mike: takes some more time, but with 1/32 it's absolutely worth the extra
work!
