Hi guys,

Busy building a SAAF Agusta A-109 LUH in 1/72. No LUH kit available, so modifying a diecast model and using a few parts from the Revell A-109KM.

So, things went rather horribly wrong with the die cast model, and I was forced to start from scratch. Luckily I've now completed the project :)
