US Coastguard Helo Helicopter

[shika]

I've got the template from the Official website of
US Coast guard.

The original size is 2 pages A4 but I reduce to one page A4.
It is still bigger than 1/144 but I'm not sure about the exact scale.

Again, no instruction. This time, I googled the actual picture of this
helicopter (last picture) and tried to assemble it.

Hope you guys like it. :mrgreen:

a very nice little chopper.looks like a nice little display peice. if you have the chance, try coloring the side red with a marker or color pencil.that way the white lines won't show like veiwed from the picture

Nice job Shika, that's not an easy model to build. It's an awesome helicopter too! Have you seen the Kamov at Canon Papercraft, that one's a beauty also! Contra-rotating rotors!

You did a good job. I would suggest getting a set of water colour paints and a very fine brush to colour the edges. You will be very happy with the end results.

Thanks for the comments and compliments guys, I really appreciated it.
Next week, I'll fix the curb color and also flip the rotor blade.
My friend just showed me his 1/144 Special AS365 F-toys Heliborn3.

As promised, I paint the curb of Eurocopter AS365 Dauphin
And then compare it with 1/144 Plastic Model

Much better. Just a little touch up goes a long way in enhancing the appearance of a paper model. So what is next on your build table?

The name of the game, in paper modeling, is to enjoy yourself. See you around the forums.

You did a good job and are improving quite well.

Just remember to paint the edges before your glue the parts together.

I am looking forward to seeing your next project.
