Oddball-o-rama entry Gazelle SA-342 in 1/40

Hi, my next entry is the Gazelle SA-342 reduced from 1/28 to 1/40. Show 3 build pics here. Adding weight to the front is necessary as this is a tail-sitter. It's a good design and the parts fit pretty well. Hope to finish it in a couple of days.

Thanks guys. The Gazelle really is appealling because of its stylish look. So, Aaron has done another piece of good work designing this one.

So, here it is the Gazelle SA-432 in 1/40. In the last pic, you can see how the rotor blade of the R22 droops because of the humidity here in this season of spring. I have sandwiched a wire in the rotor blades to make them stiff in the Gazelle. Enjoy the pics.
