    Ken is right, it tends to go to orange, hardly fire engine red, Jack (I have just recalibrated my monitor - 4K) Nice build by the way. Something not so violent ...! It could be the setting of your camera ... white balance ...

    Well, now that we've gotten the approval of our armchair CNO on the correct hue for the helo, I can proceed with the assembly. 
     
    Upper fuselage
     

    Main body assembled
     

    Added the canopy
     

     
    Some touch up painting - stabilizer fins added to tail section
     

    Painting the canopy frame by hand was a challenge and a half. Tried masking but that didn't work too well, so I resorted to free-handing it.
     
    And now back to the incarceration cell, errr, workshop

    Cockpit is better than no cockpit  - imagine the pilot trying to fly without it🙃

    Since I have little time, I left my SMS Seydlitz in her mothballs and picked up this little build.

    The only thing I can say: "it is small!!!" and it is almost finished before you start it
     
    Resin and PE ready for painting

     
    Base coat "Black base" with chrome - both AK extreme metal colours - enamels

     
    Base colour is RLM 66 some details filled in with colours, and metal PE which has been prepainted - Vallejo acrylics - added a bit of wear and tear

     
    Getting the PE, resin, and plastic fitted took the better part of an eveing, painting took in all about 1.5 - 2 hours. Quite a fun model to build despite it's size, lot's of detail on the resin parts too
     
    Cheers

    You give me to much credit Lou, thank you
     
    Hello Assat, thank you for your praise. It is all Eduard. They have "Brassin" kits which you can use to enhance your - mostly -  airplane kits, and these are full of detail. A combination of resin, plastic, and PE (both metal and brass).
    Have a look at their BRASSIN kits
     
    As for tutorials, I am still learning, but this bloke does make nice tutorials PLASMO

    Easy for you Aussies to say, but in Europe we do not have that much head room ...

     
    Nice solution to a "tiny" problem. So if you take off the masts anyway, you are finished now ?

    Lol, Carl this would mean going to waste the 150 m of rope I spent weeks making! Maybe best to press on...Indeed, Mark, not all countries are continents!😄 In England we are like sardines in a can.
