H-21C Flying Banana 1/72 Italeri

Post by smokeriderdon »

OK folks, here she is. Unfortunately the decals didnt work out. See build thread for the sad story. But I think she looks good as is. The kit itself is great. I would recommend it and will likely get another to do a 1st Heli version. Print Scale decals however...not the absolute worse I have dealt with, but freaking close. I will have to be desperate to do a version of something only they make a set for to buy them again.

So here ya go!

I think you've created a very cool representation of a banana! :banana: :banana: Well done for overcoming the issues and staying (almost) sane with the decals! :clap: :clap:
