                        I love it. You did a great job there. You can't beat the Tiger meet markings can you? I have a Hind waiting in the loft to be done up in Czech Tiger meet markings.

                        How did you paint the stripes? Did you do them free hand or have stencils?

                        Hi Rich, Hi all,

                        The stripes were done along with Uhu patafix, a very useful kinda sticky paste...

                         

                         

                        Some more shots after it underwent washes, weathering and nose antennaes fixed, AWA cab glasses made out of rhodoïd (my kids Xmas toys packagings !!!)  






                         
                        I airbrushed Pebeo matt acryl varnish to seal this weatherwork.



























                        Best regards, 

                        Richard

                        'Lo guys !

                        Long time I ain't posted here !

                        Well here I come with my "eye catching" Puma SA330 in 1/32nd.

                        I painted the Tiger Meet RAF scheme at the 2005 edition of the Tiger Meet. This "camo" is not the one in the box, but when I discovered pics on the net from this helo, I hade to make it mine !

                        Here we gooooooow Yeah!! [yeah]





















                        I scratched the necessary parts to have my helo look like the RAF 2005 one (missile warning devices, the yellow box in the cab).  

                        It's about 90% over, some parts R still missing (cab windows, wire antennaes, ...) 

                        Like it ?

                        Regards,
