Wow nick I have more that need finished if you want to come lend a hand

These will be my entry once I've completed another campaign I'm a bit behind on due to a modelling malfunction. I'll be building both for this campaign.

And Ladies and Gents',.......I can call it FINISHED !!!!!










Cheers Nick

Good job nick congratz

Thank you very much Mr. Justin


Cheers Nick

I'm in. I am doing a 1/35 Bell H-13H

Welcome and very cool

Thanks

now that my NON-Campaign build is complete. I can start making headway on the Apache!
Finished Cobra-NOTE THIS IS NOT FOR THE CAMPAIGN- I started it way to early.

Nicely done good job sir.

Love that cobra Shawn- really nice!

I have signed up and begun two helicopter builds- they are my first helicopter builds ever.

I am making the local Police and Air Ambulance helicopters- both Eurocopter EC 135s. I am using the Revell 1/72 kit from the Austrian Police boxing released last year. This has two additional sprues (compared to the original boxings of the kit) that are taken from the EC 145 kit- you get a whole sprue just for a tiny pair of loud hailers, and the other whole sprue just for the searchlight.

The decals are nice, and include black frames for the windows, and the frames of the sliding parts of the window too. This makes the embossed detail redundant, and in fact it will look much better without the moulded-on detail. So I broke out the sanding and polishing sticks, and removed the detail (polished on left in photo below).







The kit still contains all the air ambulance parts from earlier boxings, which I used in both the interior builds, as the Police helicopter is also used to evacuate casualties.

I am making my own transfers, which is quite ambitious as I will have to print on white paper to allow the yellow markings to show properly, which means printing a board around the them in the colour of the aircraft (red or very dark blue). Hopefully this won't look too obvious! The designs for the air ambulance decals are complete, and the hardest part of the Police markings (their crest) has been done.

looking good sir

Shawn that's one nice build you have there.

Now to my work slight change of plan, one of the SH-60B's is now painted and awaiting decal's,



But I'm now going to build what's in the packet below as my main entry and use the SH-60 in case I don't get it finished. Anyone guess what it is?

It's resin and 1/144

Beautiful Cobra, Shawn. Love the shark teeth!

OK two afternoons work and this is what you get!




Too coin a phrase 'can you guess what it is yet?'

Rotor heads and rotors next plus a bit of filler in a few places then undercoat

Very cool and a different build to boot keep at it

I've only managed to do a bit more interior work- still a way to go before I can close up the fuselage halves.

Looking good the figures look great

OK base coat has been applied and the few details picked out, next stage decals.

Here is what I am going to build for this campaign.



I just need to get started on it!!

Randy

very cool builds guys kudos and keep it up

Well here is my in-progress photo #1.



Today I just got the basic construction done. I still have some clean up to do and I need to stretch some sprue to make the support wires and attach them.

Hopefully I will have another photo to share soon.

Thanks,

Randy

Randy,
Cool project, I remember seeing a photo of this a/c some time in the past. I do not remember the name (I could not see from the photo posted) I will keep watching your build with interest, I wonder what the pilot thought about being above those blades..

Bob

Thanks Bob.

Here is a link that discusses the PKZ-2.
