Coming along quite well.

I was thinking about buying one of those kits, but it looks like a real putty eater from your pics.

After long time and many nasty insults is Tiger (yes, now it looks like as Tiger) after surfacer...

But I'm afraid that previous work was only a prelude...

Well...small progress

I complete main rotor but one of the rotor blade was deformed from production and don't react for my triis for form them to normal angle (including boiling water - wery thought plastics).I must scribed line on him and form the blade by needle.Next, blade was putted and sanded to former surface.













Here are putted and sanded parts of weapons systems - cannon, Trigat missiles and rocket pods.The "cake" on the top of photo is electronic bulge which will be installed on top of the canopy
