  • In this video, we are building the Airfix 1/72 scale Sea King, as currently flown by the 330 Squadron of the Royal Norwegian Air Force.
    As well as building and painting this model, we also look into the history of the squadron, from WW2 until today

    What a great variation of this historical aircraft. I'm currently working on the 1/72 yellow SAR version (along with after market aircrew) pilot,co-pilot,
    navigator and winchman

    I made one off these Airfix Sea Kings recently also.. And also found putting the fuselage together very tricky. Nothing closed up and sealed. Had to trim bits off the inner cabin to have it seal up. A nice model when finished. But Airfix need to sort out this issue..

      Actually, after watching this video, I was thinking of coloring two of the three 1/72 scale UH-60 Blackhawk Kidults with an airbrush when adding "stripes (lace painting)" to the outside of the fuselage! . Watching this video, I was completely shocked by the fact that the airbrush and brush strokes were completely mixed! 3:46

    Hello, awesome video. I watched it like 50 times. I also build this model with electronics for spinning rotors and so. My problem is that i dont have decals for it, because its a german MK41 but i wamt the norway version much more. And my question is. What reason is there for painting it first black and the grey and white? Makes it not sense painting it white at first?

    • @scalemodelhistory4174
      @scalemodelhistory4174  3 месяца назад

      The black primer was simply because that is the one I normally use. White can be difficult to paint straight over black, so by going with shades of grey first, I find it easier to paint white

    This base of this kit first came out in 1969 (!!) and was updated trough the years with more details, decals and parts. Thats why the fitting is somewhat dated. Your result however is very beautiful.
