  Hi all, here is a quick and fun model I built whilst away on my hols. Anyone who has spent time in Britain will know about the vagaries of the British climate so I took the precaution of arming myself with a project to build between showers!

  This little kit was supplied with a pot of glue, three acrylic paint pots and a two headed paint brush. I built the kit straight out of the box using no filler and the kit decals applied directly onto the brush painted surface.

  The finished item is far from perfect. The instructions are a little vague in some places so the exhausts may be wrong and the antennas might not be correct either. Having said that, I thoroughly enjoyed the couple of hours this took to build. As the Yorkshire rain poured down against the windows I was magically transported back to my youth and a time when I built all of my models this way. 

  (At some point I'd like to attempt the larger 1/35th scale version of this 'copter so we'll see how that one turns out!)
