Swiss Kamov - Ka-32 zvezda 1/72

Post by BsYamato »

After the Ka 15 , rapidly another coaxial rotors russian helo on the workbench. This time no short run and not so small
Lately i received these nice decals from begemot that included about 60 possible helix family units between Ka-27/28/29/31/32 :drum:

The first victim will be a swiss use Ka-32 (basikally ka-27 with civilian stuffs) used as fliyng crane and rescue operations

The kit used is the zvezda ka-27ps , heres box'n'sprues, theres no kits for the Ka-32

The kit is a mix of new sprues (fuselages , accessories, clear parts ) and old Ka-29 sprues (rotors, gears)

First intervention, the right window is wrong in shape and dept.

With a powerfull eyemeter i draft the correct shape and cut excess plastic. Then a mould for new clear part

Also pilot and side door need a new window. In the pilot window theres need a full scratched door because original piece is a single clear part.

This should be good... :popcorn:
