Bell UH-1M Huey Gunship El Salvador Air Force 1/35 FINISHED
salvador001 replied to salvador001's topic in Helicopter Modeling
Thanks John, the toilet bowl is from Fireball Modelworks. Rod. -
Hello guys, This is my current project, the Academy MRC UH-1C converted to a Salvadorean UH-1M with the toilet bowl as seen in action during the 1980s-90s war in El Salvador. First of all i want to thank Ray(Rotorwash), he provided me the kit for free,(thank you my friend) I am using a lot of aftermarket sets such as the Eduard Big Ed, Fireball Modelworks M158 rocket pods, brass GAU-2 minigun barrells, and a couple of scratch pieces. Heres some in progress pics of the cockpit, and some already painted bits. Hope you all enjoy! Rod.

1/48 UH-1V Huey Kitty Hawk FINISHED 03.16.18
salvador001 replied to CharlieUH-1H's topic in Helicopter Modeling
One of the best ive seen, you put a lot of effort to an almost perfect model kit. Congrats my good friend. Rod. -
Ok guys, calling this one done, the model was built 90% OOB except for the excellent Werner Wings Huey upgrades, and some antennas, wire strike blades, handles, were made from scratch. Painting was done using Model Master acrylics. Main color is U.S. Army Helo Drab. Decals came from Fireball Modelworks. Hope you all enjoy, if you have any questions please ask me. Thanks. Rod.

1/32 & 1/35 Bell 412 conversions
salvador001 replied to Anthony in NZ's topic in Helicopter Modeling
So youre telling me they will release the nose section fully corrected? Not that would be so cool. Hope they could release the commercial interior configuration including the seats and roof section. I will have to save a couple of months some money to buy this, although is very expensive. Rod. -
Looks amazing, i love the finished look. Great build. Rod.
