Gentleman

I am normally an armor modeler but also have an intrest in helios. My next build will be the OH-6 in a 70s era used for artillery observation. I am going to build the Dragon 1/35 kit

Question, I am looking for reference photos of the interior (the memory is not what it was). Trying to get colors and shot of the control panel, seats etc. As I remember, seats and panel were OD, much of the hard areas in front were lighter, either cockpit/puke green or a grey. I don't remember much on the rear. The floor I think was OD.

I have done my standard search for reference photos, but no clear interior shots. Anyone have a site or shot I can use it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
