That's really nice
It's amazing what first impressions can do. My copy of that kit was the ADAC version, so my mental image of it is always yellow. The military scheme makes it look so different!

Doug;
I'm a rotor nutt obviously, and you've done an outstanding
job on the 105. Luv the details u added. Great!!! Job on a
small helo in 48th scale. The Oh-58 isn't easy to detail either. Good choice of color scheme.

Great looking model, I have one in the ADAC markings in my cabinet and two as yet unbuilt ESCI kits in the stash.
Thanks for sharing the build pics with us.
