  1. Damn, that looks amazing, did you add light to the IP? Looks like it has some LED lightning. Rod.
  2. Ok guys, ive finally finished detailing the rotor transmission, hope you all like it. Next update will be the cockpit. Rod.
  3. Charlie, i will send them to you today. Rod.
  4. Yes, i am creating the angled downward swash plate just like the Huey in Charlies photo.
  5. Cubs, That modification is called the BLR Fast Fin, it helps the tail rotor to be more efficient and create much control to the aircraft, it also helps eliminate the LTR effectiveness. Rod.
  6. Another update. Now working on the main rotor gearbox and correcting some minor issues that Kitty Hawk totally forgot. Hope you all enjoy. Rod.
  7. Charlie, what are you waiting for??? Please, you may start your build LOL!!!! Come on buddy we want to see this beauty. Rod.
  8. Ok guys, heres the first progress of the build. I have encountered various issues with the kit, the first one being this nasty moulding line that runs through the whole main lower fuselage section, i just had to eliminate it and redo the inspection panels that were lost during the sanding process. Hope you all enjoy. Rod.
  9. Hi everyone, this is my next project, a Bell UH-1V from the Georgia Army National Guard. I will represent UH-1V 71-20255 from the 148th Medical Company AA GA-ARNG ca.2003-4. For the model i will use the Kitty Hawk UH-1D 1/48 kit, Werner Wings sets, Eduard photoetch, and Fireball Modelworks decals, and the rest will be scratch including the medevac interior. The model will be a tribute to all the Pilots and Crew Chiefs of the GA-ARNG that worked with the mighty Huey. This is the bird i will build: Hope you all enjoy and lets start this beauty! Rod.
  10. Ohh now i see, well i would recommend you to remove the stynylrex completely before adding the mr surfacer. Please show us more updates, looks awesome. Rod.
  11. Thats pretty weird, i have used the mr surfacer 1500 for a long time and the thing sticks like a rock. Have you cleaned up the surface first? It could have some oil that does not let the surfacer stick in. The black surfacer would look great as a primer to create shadow and color blending before you apply the Dark Gull Gray. Rod.
  12. Looks like the real thing. Awesome work!! Rod.
  13. What an outstanding piece of modelling Oliver. Great job!! Rod.
  14. Thank you guys!! I appreciate all your comments. Rod.
  15. That antenna near the upper wire strike looks to be an L2MUM, that enables the aircraft to manage and receive information from a drone. Rod.
  16. Looks awesome, cant wait to see the sprue shots in detail. BTW, the skid tubes are a little bit thick, they look like the modern ones that the M model uses, ill have to use the Dragon skids to make the little bird from gothic serpet era. Rod.
  17. Great explanation my friend, i will do exactly as you, shave some milimeters of the fuselage. Rod.
  18. Damn, cant wait to see how this model comes. Hopefully will be better than the Dragon one. Rod.
  19. My all time dream is the UH-1D/H in 1/35 scale, i will be more than happy with that. The rest would be a AH-1G/F/S cobra, AH-64. OH-58A/C, UH-60, and others in 1/35 also. Rod.
  20. Thank you guys. Now i cant wait to start the Kitty Hawk Huey. Rod.
