This finish should be glossy, all are great builds

 

 I think more of a semi-gloss is appropriate in this scale.  High-gloss like it is smoothes out all the details and makes it look toy-like to me.  Also, some parts like the rotor blades and mast, and the anti-glare panel on the nose should still be flat.

 

I think Gino is correct

Great collaboration, guys. Now if we could only convince Italeri to re-issue some of their 1:48 scale helo kits (nary a Huey to be found these days...) so I would have something to use the Fireball decals on...
Cheers!

I would also like them to release more helo's in 1/48th also, both new and re-releases. If not them, how about someone else?
