Hi Ian
Nice start. It already looks fiddly and I reckon it will test your skills more as the build goes on.

That looks more like a sprue off-cut. Crazy small!

Must have been a frightening thing to fly with little or no cover :surprised:

Also painted the framework we’re the engine’s going to sit. They need weathering a little though.

Continuing with the main rotor section, more tiny bits to add, this took some time to build but all done and ready for painting.
