Youre very welcome! Im in california, USA. I actually just left a comment on the other video, part 2 i think, about the putty.... I just purchased a compressor and airbrush so i cant wait to paint it, but first i gotta take care of those gaps, thanks for commenting back!!

@coladito1 Thanks for your comment and I'm glad it helped. This build was a nightmare for me and I'll not be making any more helis!! I'm in the UK. You?

Wow! Amazing! I am building the academy kit for this, and let me tell you: the fitting is horrible!!!! I am not even close to the skill level that you are on, but this 4 part video sure helped me with my build, thank you so much for the vids, you have no idea how much this helped. Where are you from/ located??

Instead of masking the canopy interior, then spraying the interior colour, I would have done the first coat with an interior colour on the exterior, then covered with the exterior colour, but great build :P, I'd just kill myself trying to mask the interior of a canopy.

Just watched all 4 parts of this build; very nice indeed. I particularly liked the scratch built details on the rotor head :)

All 4 parts 'liked' and added to my favourites list :)

Don't know what you've attached the canopy with, but if it's one of the white PVA glues - Micro Kristal Klear - that type of thing, you could probably remove it without too much trouble, peeling off the residue. Then - and ALWAYS try this on an inconspicuous area first - you could coat the canopy in Fairy Power Spray (it's in a green bottle) which will/should safely remove the matt varnish. Obviously, it will also remove the frame colour too, but at least you'll only be back to square one!

@MakingModelsAgain Anyway, stunning build as always and looking forward to the Martlett! Can't wait to see what you do with 1/32!!!

[dondeyout1]

@MakingModelsAgain Thank you. It will be interesting I'm sure! Looks to be a nice kit so looking forward to getting going with it

[dondeyout1]

@MakingModelsAgain I used Humbrol clear fix which is quite gummy so your solution may well work. I'll keep you posted! Thank you
