This is my first entry, the old airfix Bo-105, one of hardest kits to find in my collection, actually another in the stash but the recent Amodel 105 turning this as real old thing but even a good kit to reproduce the famous messerschmitt helo
The box have only an option for a german one from 1977, west german army before the wall break
Asap updates, started last night with some minor adssemly and mainly clear and improves of pieces . I'll try to keep mods low

Re: BsYamato's rotors
That is a nice start. I like those Airfix kits, even the older ones.

First works on the german chopper:
holed and thinned front intake, reshape of seats, front and rear , not yet finished. Removed copilot peg , theres a central consolle that must find home
Fuselage test fit and holed rear exhausts
Actual assembly of main rotor that seems missing some detail , mostly on the basement and control bars
Rescribbed main panel lines and removed rivets (so the counters cannot count them )
Tht's all for now

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Re: BsYamato's rotors
Finished detailing the cockpit , after paint will add the IP cover
Base painting and sealed black clear parts borders (it prevent bad refraction on windows and canopy that have borders near the glue line. A good tip from a freine on italian forum)
The little squade are the upper consolle
At the next!
