  1. I picked this up real cheap from my local retro computer games store as he bough it in a lot of diecast models. Fortunately this is better than their 1/48 offering which I attempted to build a few years ago. Detail is ok, the same with the fit of the parts, nothing the average modeller couldn't contend with. The one fault with the kit is the decals, mine were badly out of register so I painted on the yellow ID stripe and sourced spare IAF insignia from the decal stash.

     

    AK Interactives RC229 'Army Helo Drab' (FS34031) was used for the base colour and it looks spot on. Weathering was achieved with MiG pigments and washes along with Tamiya pastel kits. i also chose to mount some inert blue Hellfires for a little colour. Thanks for looking.

    Hi!

     

    About the upcoming  VTOL BG, that means no Autogyros allowed (Cierva, "Little Nellie" etc.)?

     

    If the Harrier allowed so should Autogyros, both needs a short starting run, but they can land vertically.

    Sorry Stefan autogyros are out. As there is no power to the rotors they aren't really VTOL craft. While the Harrier does often use a short take off or ski jump, it is capable of direct vertical lift off.
