More updates here:
On Ec135 all main pieces on but the windscreen in the uuper parts have some problem that need to be resolved , about a step of half millimeter between the roof top and clear part.
Also missing exhaust in the kit so, two plastic tubes was needed. Rotor and gears are not glued.


The Bk fits better (it't a matchbox!!)
All main pieces on , rotor are not glued

At the next!

After primer and lots of yellow layers, put on the red with masks


After finished red parts , glossy and decals:


Then minor parts glued and painted (left to glue only the hook arm) and rotors details

Re: BsYamato's rotors
Very nice, the "Spanish" color combination yellow-red looks excellent!

Hats off to you for a job well done on what looks like one tough paint job.
