Thanks Buck.   It is a very basic design.  Clean and simple.

So, onto the chopper's engine. Painted MM steel with a black wash.

I'm moving along with my chopper. Got the cockpit assembled and glued to the framework.

This should bring a tear to Al's eye! I think this chopper was also used in the movie Where Eagles Dare but with German markings.

Thanks guys

Finally got some bench......er........airbrush time in. The tail rotor hoop needed to be in alternating red and yellow. So I masked off everything but the hoop. Then I painted it yellow. Then I cut Tamiya tape into thin strips anf masked off an alternating pattern. A shot of red and it was done. Also got the tail rotor colored. So now I have all of the parts painted and there's no excuse not to finish.

And now that I've posted and seen the pictures, I've got a little touch-up on the hoop
