We went to Shoreham Aerojumble a couple of weeks ago and he picked up a couple of Helicopter models, a Revell 1/72 Huey and Airfix 1/72 Navy Lynx with his pocket money, the two for a fiver was a bargain in anyones book
He has made a great start on both and here he is working on the Huey, he painted the interior with the colours called out in the instructions, I was in a supervisory role only, letting him do it all only helping if he asked or was struggling ( and keeping a beady eye on avoiding spillages!). He seems like a natural though. He watched me sanding seams on my SAM builds at my workbench and asked if he could do it on his helicopters so I showed him what to do and away he went
He wants to put them in a competition, maybe at Hendon next month...hmmm....we,ll see
Lyell...
