[Helico]

Here is another fantasy build using Fujimi 575M. Since there have been many excellent 575s built already, I wanted to make something a little special. In this build, I mainly wanted to try two things: full-carbon finish using woman's tights and a rear pushrod suspension visible from interior. Suspension is a beautiful thing. Why hides it?

I modified the body here and there but nothing dramatic enough to ruin the overall shape of 575M. The stock rims were enlarged by fitting into Pegasus stepped sleeves. Rear fenders were also widened slightly to accommodate the wider wheels. Seat belts were from Tuner Model Manufacturer and they were quite nice to work with. The color scheme is inspired by Zonda R. I really like the contrast between black and gold. Tamiya paints were used throughout and the color strip was done by masking and airbrushing. This was supposed to be a quickie so I did not take any progress pictures. For photo shoot, I brought in 599 and 512 to brighten up the pictures because black is really a dull color.

Let pictures do the talking and thanks for watching.
