The model is the 1/72 Italeri kit and in my opinion it is very good.

In comparison with the website, I have found some small mistakes, especially in decals placing :

• “Easy money” decal should be on opposite side than Italeri instructions show  (all photos I found about this Chinook has it on left side, looking from front of heli)

• all exploitations sings should be in this version in black color (in instruction black are predicted for second version, for this are yellow)

I also cut aerials, which were too long and joined them with a very thin string

The model was painted with Model Masters traditional US olive drab and then I covered it Sidolux (Polish equivalent of Future ), decals and Humbrol matt cote.  This is the  first time I did a delicate preshading and wash and I also tested dry brushing and Mr Mark Setter for decals.

I am very happy with the results and I hope you like it too.
