This is the latest work from Doug Mcbee. Sorry to take so long getting it up Doug but the server shift prevented me from doing so. A great piece of work and congrats on the award.

Doug, I loved it! It brought back memories from last summer when I got the movie for my b-day. I stayed up all night and watched it.
Excellant work and detail!

Well deserved award - nice presentation.

How about an 'info' post on it. Kit info, surfboard manufacture (hang ten? body glove?), figure info.

You know us - inforamation junkies!!

Here's to a well deserved award -

Sorry for the lack of info guys. The kit is the new Panda UH-1D. Hand lettered the nose and used some decals from an armor kit (don't tell my winged warriors) for the !st Cav. crest on and around the Helo. The figures are DML. 1 set of helo crew and Col. Kilgore was also a DML figure. The helment mics and sunglasses were made from wire ties and the surf boards were made from a plastic we use at work called star board. Put 'em on a belt sander and went to shaping. I usually do one kit a year that is off the wall , just to take something out to the shows . Always find it fun to watch peoples reactions to something crazy or something that brings a good laugh. Glad you guys enjoyed it. It was alot of fun to build too.

Looking damn good, Marv. and Congratulations on the award!

"I love the smell of napalm in the morning..." Great model from a great movie. Good job!

Congrats for The Best of Show Award , it's really good Dio , I like The surfboard on the UH-1 - very good painting !!!

Take Care
