Mi-8 "High Gloss" Trumpeter 1:35

Nice to see glossy kit for a change. Even though 2k seems to be a bit of a overkill here. 

 

It seems you have built it only loosely sticking to the original/reference (missing vents, different antenna setup, original doesn't seem to have the IR jammer). Engine exhausts are glued quite deep. Tail rotor protection strut is missing too...

The Trumpeter kit is based on a Mi-8MT, in the photo is a Mi-8T, so it would need a whole new engine cover with longer inlets, no jammer etc to suit the early T.

 

Still, a nice model... I do love a Mi-8!
