Me mam recently married a guy that owns a model shop and he gave me a couple of things one being a helicopter and another a plane, had them ages and still haven't finished them but now he's moving in I have an excuse to finish them with his expertise and help.

Few pics of the Seaking helicopter anyway

How it started























That's all the pictures I can find in my photobucket, I was too busy trying to finish my Nova really as I wanted it done by summer, which is now gone I should finish it really, bit rude that I've left it so long.

 

Looking good.

Noob question, you know the water transfer stickers? How do you get them off the sheet onto the model? When I do it I end up breaking the sticker so I assume doing it with your fingers is wrong?

 

Dip the sticker into luke warm water for a couple of seconds and it should slide off, don't let it float off the backing paper.

That's what my mams husband (Mike) said and he's been doing this since he was a kid, all I did was cut around it with the craft knife (leave plenty of space so you don't cut the actual sticker) and do as above with warm water.

Tweezers are useful to hold it with while dipping.

 

Thanks
