This is the MRC 1/35 47D, in Marines markings.
Completed engine. This fought me at final assembly.

The zrevell kit was troublesome at most steps, as well. You’ll get it!

Yeah that looks very fiddlety. Nice work though.

Thanks. Yeah I've built both before, then combined them to build the bird from the TV Series The Whirlybirds.

You’re off to a fine start! I built the Revell 47 years ago. I would not mind building another as an early 1st Air Cav Vietnam scout.

You are of to a good start!

That is excellent! Imagine doing one in 1/72 scale. I did.... four times.

Nice little assembly there! Helicopter model? I'm guessing that is the engine?

Thanks. Yes, helicopter, and yes the engine. I built one of the Italeri 1/72 kits.
