Yup, even Teddy looks gobsmacked  :o

Love the idea of it being in Kreigs Marine colours  :thumbsup:

Camouflage-wise, I'd be inclined to paint it brick red with lots of little grey rectangles...

At its size you can rather paint a complete small village on its flanks...  ;D

With a meadow on the top side complete with grazing cattle, a babbling brook and a milkmaid.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Time for something a little smaller than the Ratte. A lot smaller!

And in keeping with RAF 100...............................

Introducing the Westland Puma HAR mk-2, of D flight 202 sqn. RAF Lossimouth 1994.

As you can see some scrote from the Fleet Air Arm has defaced the markings on the cabin door.................................

This one started as a little light work to keep me occupied while displaying at the Small space sci fi model show at the start of July.
The next pic shows how far I got with it while at the show.

As you can see its an old Airfix kit with a resin/white metal conversion set from Whirlybird.

Here it is a few days later at the local model club meet.

The Intakes and sand filters are resin clones of the parts in the Heller boxing of the Airfix kit. The winch is from an Italeri Couger kit (the Swedish SAR boxing).
Yes, that is a super Puma in the back ground more on that when its finished................
The basic configuration for this build is the same as the now retired Portuguese SAR Puma's

And once its had a few hours in the spray booth.

Paint wise, the Yellow is CJ aerosols BS 365 Golden yellow (Aka RAF SAR Yellow), the black is Halford satin black primer, the rest is mainly Lifecolor acrylics.

This how she appeared after a short session at work on Sunday 22nd.


And now once the decals are on..............



The decals came from a new Xtradecal Seaking sheet. It keeps the Seaking HAR-2 serial as well, as if the RAF went for Puma's for the SAR role they wouldn't have had the Seakings...................
I always hope for the best.
Unfortunately,
experience has taught me to expect the worst.

Nice one OGL, that looks the part very well.  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

Prove it!  ;D ;D ;D :wacko:

Yes still on the helicopters. they are easier to move around gate houses when working on them on Nights or weekend shifts.

Now why do I get the feeling such actions are done with chopper sound effects when nobody's looking  ;D
