I'm actually quite enjoying it Ian ! Its such an unusual subject that i kind of dont mind the extra work . If you fancy a go at something like this theres quite a few different ones by Amodel ,and you can pick them up for well under a tenner on e-bay. I nearly opted for a couple of civilian versions, one just normal and the other a crop spraying one , before choosing the soviet navy one. Just type Kamov ka 15 in the E-bay search bar and have a gander , cheers tony\ said:Boy oh boy i feel your pain Tony makes my Pegasus DH2 kit look like a Tamiya But i know you will make a super kit from this In a twisted way i think i would like to have a go at this one
