AMP 1/48 RAAF S-51 Dragonfly

OOB build with Ronin decals. This kit is “limited run” style and a lot of work, but I love the helicopter and it looks great in RAAF markings.

This is inspiring. The metal finish on it makes us mortals fall down in awe. Thank you for the great model and the fine photos too.

You always manage to pull off some very convincing work anyways but your work on this NMF is off the dang charts @Grant_Dalzell . The base is just the added cherry on top of a beautiful build.

Very convincing model !

Here is a french navy version in the 50’s. The 1/72 kit by LFmodels is of poor quality, I even had to put a tarpaulin on the cockpit to hide the gaps !

Good lookin’ scene on that second one and a brilliant idea on using the tarp to cover up the gaps on the top of the bird. Beautiful work here Chris.

Thanks, Mustang 1989 !

THANK YOU Koschrei !

I built another company’s HO3S-1, it’s quite a helicopter.

You did very well with yours, thank you for sharing.
