SPA Modeler

the Bell OH-13 or civil Bell 47 was a helicopter from korean war time, but for trainning used for a longer time and on lot of nations

this is the italeri kit with some PE from Eduard, britsh army markings, (Italian and US Army gunship were options in the kit)

That turned out very nicely Peter! When I was a kid, these choppers were still pretty common for local civil aviation. TV station and police departments were using them until replaced by more modern types.

Very nicely done, CL!! Only one thing reminds me of those choppers... M.A.S.H. television show.

Same here! Very beautiful build

Nice! I'll have to get that one in the stash. I built a really nice multimedia kit of it years ago, cant recall the kit but the boom was all pe. Anyhow, nice job. Always thought this was designed after a dragonfly.

This version is actually a later variant. The Whirlybirds used this variant. The MASH bird has a bit different shape to the doors and a flat oblong fuel tank. The MRC 1/35 one is a MASH era machine. Very nice build!

Very nice!!
