The buildup is typical of a helicopter, and the kit required a minimal amount of sanding and test fitting. The decals for this kit are somewhat of a pain. They are extremely thin, and respond only to Polly Scale decal softener. 

I am satisfied with the overall results on this model. I didn't get too carried away with the detailing, as OOB gives a pretty good result on it's own. There's room for the after market as the entire engine / drive shaft / electronic bay panels can be opened. If anyone does a vacuformed canopy I would recommend using that instead.
