Hasegawa 1/48 SH-3H
Posted by Anonymous on Thursday, October 2, 2003 3:19 PM
For all you rotorheads out there, I just picked up the above kit. I was curious if there are aftermarket interiors for the crew compartment and the sonar equipment. I don't really look forward to scratchbuilding the entire interior. Has anyone else done anything similar with this kit or had any experience with it?

Thanks,

wadda ya mean dere ain't no interior. For the price of the kit, you'd think they'd have one - at least basic anyways

Nope, just the cockpit. It's a really good cockpit, but no more than that. Disappointing, isn't it? At least I got mine for $40 instead of the usual $60. I guess that's some consolation.

I built this kit a few years ago,i wanted to build it as a westland seaking Mk6, this envolved two conversion kits (can't remember the maker) one kit for westland fix the other for the Mk6 fix.all parts were for exterior.i only partially built the interior as i didn't want to open the cargo door, so i only built what was visible from the cockpit and the forward door. I could provide some pictures of my model if this could help you.

Enjoy life. You don't know how long you have. Be polite. Smile - it costs nothing. If all else fails ---walk away. Enjoy life.

Be careful with this one, Demon69. The nose glass doesn't want to fit correctly. It's too wide for the fuselage. At least it was the way I built it:)

Thanks for all of the input, guys, but got rid of the kit. Would have cost too much to do all of the detailing I wanted to do, especially with scratchbuilding the entire interior. Maybe one of these days, I'll feel a bit braver, like when I have a year to dedicate to one.
