Hi
Some steps with the Bell UH-1H… some complications with the transparent ones, they are smaller than the openings… a complication to place them…
The steps

A known Italeri hiccup with helicopter kits, it’s not just you and it’s a pain (imo).

Too bad, when I put together the 212, I don’t remember having this problem…

Looking good. It looks like the decals came out just fine. Can’t wait to see it done.

Thanks Gino.
I expected another finish with the end of the model, I didn’t put enough varnish for the decals to take shape and I generated ghosts, since there was no way for them to adhere well… experience for the next…

I only have to put together a little base and I will consider the model finished.
