Title: Mil Mi-2
Post by: chriswil42 on December 08, 2024, 02:22:39 PM
Started thus whike waiting for some paint to dry.
Glazing in the fuselage halves - minimal interior; a shade of grey I think.

I think Wayne is quicker.

He is a few years younger, and maybe that helps, but you are a very CLOSE second.

Finished.  Quite a simple kit. The decals had been ready to separate (quite old), so I decided to coat with decal film before using.
