G'day everyone, well one of the things i picked up at the model expo a while ago was the Revell UH-1H Gunship, now when i first opened it, i was amazed, so many different pieces of armament, quad M6 machine guns, rocket pods, and mini guns, and it was fairly detailed too, but when it all came together i wasnt so happy anymore, its had gaps as big as the grand canyon, especially where the door is hinged on, now i have now filled them with 2 part epoxyr esin, BUT, it took a few coats of that, as it was failry runny and sunk into the model once it began to harden, so is there any product that is a bit thicker, and may not do that? Anyway if your interested what im gonjna do with the huey, well im converting it into an RAAF Bushranger gunship, the type used in Nam, for another dio, had to scratchbuild new rocket pods, but they are done now


Oh, before i forget, does anyone have any Spare 1:35 M60's lying around? the type they have in the dragon us vietnam helicopter crew set, not the one thats just a plain M60 that hangs on the strap, im looking for the type that are mounted on the stand. I am looking for 4 of them, as the bushrangers had quad 60's on either side, i am willing to pay for them to. Well thanks for reading guys, cheers!
