She's done. Quick build as I found working with 1/72 way too difficult for my eyes and hammy fists. I used my new camera to take the picks...nice but I need a few more practice shots before I can claim to be any good. Anyways, hope you enjoy. This was built OOB. The Hobby Boss SLUf inaccuracies are well documented, but the kit itself is a relatively easy build. Decals are not 100% right but they do a decent job and I must say, they conformed very well given the length of some of them.

Right, finished one. 1/48 Twin Huey using Belcher Bits conversion and Canmilair decals to make a 439 Tiger squadron SAR Griffon.

Added a 424 Iroquois, like 439 used to fly before the Griffon.

Hi SARguy. That's a gorgeous looking Phantom mate. Nice job. Unfortunately, for the purposes of fairness, this one wouldn't qualify as the rules state that you need to post some progress pics in a WIP thread to show progress etc. Do you have any build pics at all? If so, you could start a WIP thread and this would qualify.

I see you've started a few other WIP threats! Awesome stuff. Look forward to seeing your tigers!!! Nice work.
