1/35 Italian Forest bird


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

 

Continuing my Italian Forestale theme, here is my first fully completed bird.

 

I used the Italeri OH6 kit with a kind donation of the clear parts for the doors. The kit build was basic but with the Eduard OH6 parts that I thought applicable. The Decals are from a really helpful gentleman in Germany, Heli Scale provide a neat service for the RC guys but you can also get 3d printed parts in 1/35 and the decals for a whole host of special schemes, check him out.

 

I've enjoyed the simplistic approach to this build but I've really enjoyed it being a great helicopter that looks good out of the restraints of military colours.

Great model Wafu!

How did you get the fit of the frontal glazing so neat? Regular problem on the Dragon/ Italeri- kits...

Heli Scale Quality IS a good adress for these kind of models. I also use their high skid landing gear for MD500's/ OH6's.

Thanks for the kind words guys.

 

GeeJeez, I use jewel tool cement on all my clear parts, I find with its applicator and relatively quick setting time it gives me a better chance od getting the finish I want. When it dries it's clear as well. I have a set of MD500 high skids coming from Heliscale for my current build.
