G'day guys
here she is, DML's 1/35 AH-6J Littlebird, 160th SOAR "Nightstalkers".
will put the decals on another time.
There was a few things i wouldve liked to to as far as scratchbuilding went, but it was for the AGE 2 campaign so it had to be OOB.
It didnt take that long to complete but i was waiting to get a replacement tail rotor as i lost the one it came with ( Thanks Jo for helping me with that).








All comments are welcome, Cheers

Wow, she is a beauty !

Might I ask what colors/paint did you use for both the rotor and fuselage? It would be great for my up coming 1:48 AH-64 Apache :-)

G'day Rammy.
Paints are craft acrylics, brush painted, the brand is "Jo' Sonja's artists colours"
:-) cheap craft paint mate
Cheers

That's a beauty. I never built a chopper but I think I would like to try one.

Daaaave nice job bro, I like how it came out. The cockpit looks great...busy. I like it a lot, talk to you later man..

Looks great Dave. Will look awesome with the decals on it. Good job.

Very cool airplane

Well done mate!

Hey hey hey! Now I see your birdie! :-) :-) :-) Like it! Nice interior and overall work. Nitpick, I saw a seam on the rocket launchers (or was that TOW?)

Thanks guys, Ralph, yep, seam line, arghh didnt notice it until now :-) ill fix it another time.
Cheers

Your little bird looks great Dave, I am glad you got it done in time!

very nice little bird. I liked the interior detailing so much especially on the pilot and copilot seat belts.
it will be awesome as the decals added.
congrats brother

Nice work bro, both interior and exteriour look great. I want to build this kit myself too for the Capture Aidid campaign. Is it any good?

Cheers,
Martin

Thankyou again guys
Martin, the kit is great, there was only one major problem, and that was the ammo belts for the miniguns, and when i say major i mean i nearly gave up, it frustrated me so much.
Cheers

Gotta love the Killer Egg. You've done a great job with this one, too. Makes me want to get one of mine out and start building it.

If I may ask, what was the problem with the ammo belts?

Thanks John.
Well, i found trying to bend those damn hard plastic ammo belts is just about impossible, i tried hot water, didnt work, a flame, worked to well and melted the bloody thing, in the end i bent them as best i could in areas, but just had to snap them up in others, annoying Cheers

I love this helicoptor you did a great job..keep up the good work!
