What a great variation of this historical aircraft. I'm currently working on the 1/72 yellow SAR version (along with after market aircrew) pilot,co-pilot, navigator and winchman

A beautiful build! My first flight was in one of those Sea Kings at the Air Forces' summer camp in 1976. It left a lasting impression. Subscribed.

wonderful

This is an absolute work of art. Bravo sir!

I made one off these Airfix Sea Kings recently also.. And also found putting the fuselage together very tricky. Nothing closed up and sealed. Had to trim bits off the inner cabin to have it seal up. A nice model when finished. But Airfix need to sort out this issue..

This base of this kit first came out in 1969 (!!) and was updated trough the years with more details, decals and parts. Thats why the fitting is somewhat dated. Your result however is very beautiful.

Hello, awesome video. I watched it like 50 times. I also build this model with electronics for spinning rotors and so. My problem is that i dont have decals for it, because its a german MK41 but i wamt the norway version much more. And my question is. What reason is there for painting it first black and the grey and white? Makes it not sense painting it white at first?

@scalemodelhistory4174

4 ай бұрын

The black primer was simply because that is the one I normally use. White can be difficult to paint straight over black, so by going with shades of grey first, I find it easier to paint white
