Next one from the stash to do. Can't have enough Seakings.

You can't have enough Seakings. ;D
-
In tbe kit there are options for three variants; one a US marines and two USN SH-3D and SH-3H.
I shall be making the SH-3H.
-
Another nice Seaking to watch.

In fact, Chris could actually be our own B&W SMC's 'Greys Anatomy' star.

No. That would be too embarrassing for me.

No, SEA KING royalty deserve only the best recognition for their efforts.
I would prefer to bow rather than curtsey, don't normally wear a dress like you Msea.
He is the king of helicopters in the club nonetheless.
Cheers,
Kevin

Thnaks Kevin. Don't look too closely though.
-
Fuselage largely done. Note the sponsons are larger than the Westland helicopters.
-
Masked up ready for the shade of grey on the undersides.
-
Shades of grey - that's not like you Chris - hohohoho
-
I wonder what his house is decorated? Hmmm........

Everything is white or shades thereof.

Yep!
-
Are you sure that's shades of white or is it shades of RED - hohohho
-
Red?
-
Perhaps MSea's meds are wearing off? Anyway white is just a very, very pale grey so it fits in with everything else (perhaps?).

Perhaps......
But there is now a 'White' that reflects up to 98% of sunlight, apparently.
So I think 'White' is actually getting 'Whiter'.
Good Lord, I just thought, we may go to a model show and some smart (person) may say that's not the correct shade of white.
For me Tamiya XF-2 White is good enough,,,,,
Bigkev
-
Nearing completion. Another shade of grey on the shade of white.
-
SO Procol Harum then?
A whiter shade of pale.
-
That was known as the "Sea Sick" song at sea
-
Coming along nicely, they always looked good in white and gray.

Little tricky bits to do now.

Yes I have previously made both versions from the Airfix kit many years ago. I still have the built models but they are not quite upto my more recent standard of build. They're ok if viewed from about 10 feet plus.
-
Almost ready for decals.
-
looking good so far.
Bob c
-
Interesting to see that you've 'tooled it up' before decalling.
-
Decalling in progress. This kit, probably because I've had it a long while, it's decals had crinkled. Luckily I had another identical kit but it's decals were not quite as bad. So I scanned those in and created some new ones. That's why this is taking a bit longer. Hopefully I'll be finished in a few days.
-
Hats off to you Chris,
Scanning and making your own decals, impressed.
Cheers,

You do what you gotta do!
-
Finished at last. The decals took a while to put on.
The Fujimi is a nice kit - parts fitted together well.
-
Another great addition to the ever growing collection.
-
I'll second that.
-
Thanks chaps - need more space.
-
Don't we all?
-
Superb job Chris. Well done.
