Ka15 ambulance

Next project. Kamov Ka15 ambulance produced by Amodel in 1/72nd scale.
It's the usual Amodel short run soft plastic; a bit fiddly.

Looks an interesting project.
Sure it will be safe in your hands.

How long will this one take Chris - before you have another excellent helo ?

A couple of weeks I hope.

Now Chris,
Now, you are just showing off, and hoping to catch Zak in his build rate!

Actually I'm not going as quick as I expected. Anyway here is the interior added into the fuselage.

Main sub-assemblies done. There are 30 parts in the rotor assembly - fiddly to say the least; it took a few attempts.

It looks a dinky model.

Painting done - hand brushed. Thought it a bit small for airbrushing. Now ready for decals. The main decals were missing but they were in another model so I've been able to scan them and print another set off.

Small but perfectly formed!!

Hi Chris,
That's one sweet little helicopter!

Finished at last. A bit fiddly in places. Not my best but it adds to the collection.
The white is Halfords Fiat white 249 - I've found this the best white so far which gives a reasonable finish. The decals were slow as I had to make some more but they went on ok.

A dinky little helicopter, nice.

Great model Chris well up to your normal standard from what I can see
