Italeri 1/72 OH-13s Sioux

Post by Thumboy »

Here are the final reveal photos of my entry into the Shelf of Doom LTGB. The OH-13s Sioux. for all the info, history and my journey through this build please check out my build thread. I would like to say I have thoroughly enjoyed building this little kit form Italeri but that wouldn't be entirely true. I got bogged down with all the photo etch, It was the first time I have used it - I should have started of with something easier. about half of this kit is now replaced with p.e. the good news is I wont be scared next time I use it.

thanks guys, see you in the 2015 GB's and SIG's, planning to take part in all of them apart from Mod Armour. hope you enjoy the photos of the Sioux :cheers2:

Thanks guys :cheers2: don't know about my patience, this kit certainly tested it a few times but I got there in the end and it only took 8 months :crazy:
