Hi,

That’s looking really sharp [:)]

Yes, I do like the interior and the pit. It shows quite a bit of life.

I was wanting to do a Sea King in 1/48, but it’s my understanding that the Hasegawa kit doesn’t have an interior. I’ll consider the Airfix kit in 1/72.

Nice, been thinking about getting this kit, i want to do one based in the falklands.

Can’t wait to see more.

And yes, they are very dirty inside, i can vouch for that.

thanks guys [:)] tonight fitted a couple bits and tested the fit and interior light from puondland battery christmas lights lol

tonight fitted the other 3 lights , no space in the nose when its 1/72 for 1 led let alone 3 lol so had to attack it with a dremel to make them fit , glued it all together then masked it all and gave it a coat of Alclad grey microfiller/primer :slight_smile:
