Kamov Ka-27PL (HB 1/48)


Recommended Posts

IMHO this kit is undervalued. Interesting subject, easy to build, good level of details - it was a fun! Weak points are the interior (more or less fictitious) and the Russian decals (black outline instead of blue).

I used the following AM stuff:

- Seats: Quickboost

- PE (FOD, wipers): Brengun

- Decals: Begemot

 

Color by Akan. The copter was seen in September 1991 as a part of 830th Ship-based Antisubmarine Helicopter Regiment in Severomorsk-2

Hope you like it, I do...DSC_0150_zpserkvksc8.jpg

I think over a month in this forum without critiques tells you that you have a great looking build here.

 

And since you stated this kit was interesting, easy, detailed and fun... that to me is the most important aspect of your project.

 

Congratulations.:thumbsup:

I hope it really is because of that! Awfully quiet here these days...

 

A magnificent model! One of my favorite choppers of which I've always liked to make a model. Wonderful finish and beautiful markings from just the right period. I would be glad to see more of the cockpit because at least the seats look great.

This one went under the radar for me, glad it got bumped up again.

 

Really great build and dont see too many of those. I suspect the reason in part is the price which seems to be on the high side from what i have seen. But really nice and clean build.

Gotta love the Helix. Nice build. :thumbsup:

 

Don't know about the background, though. :tease:Could use a pic from a calendar or something like that. The build would surely deserve it.

Nice build - if I were to suggest one improvement it would be paint demarcation between the tyres and the hubs.

 

I really want this kit but they hugely over-priced it, so I unless I see one on a good sale or second hand, I shan't be buying one :(
