1/72 Fujimi Westland Sea King Mk.48

This is the Fujimi kit build long ago (10 years I think!!) to represent a Belgian Sea King Mk.48 of the 40th squadron. The usual modifications were made and some details were added mainly inside.  I used the following colours and they were applied using a brush:

  • green: Base in Humbrol 149, weathering with H 151, H 117 and H 34
  • stone Brown: Base in Heller 7023, weathering with H 103 and H 34.

A Beautiful build. Love it!

A Beautiful build. Love it! Since you wrote, that most of the added details are on the inside - do you have any pictures of the interior? The copilots seat withe the storage for the sea anchor looks absolutely amazing!

 

Can´t stop looking at the pictures - you used the DACO decals?

Belgian Sea king

Hi all,

I'm just back from a mission in africa..that's for the late answers!!

Thanks for your kind words on this old model, yes paint is made with a brush. decals are not from DACO but from the Sea King of Heller..(re boxing of the airfix kit) and no I have no pictures of the inside sorry for that..

Cheers and happy modelling

Pierre
