This is a decade plus long project, put away and pulled out several times over the years. The 1/48 Blackhawk kits available then needed a lot of extra help and researching 160th SOAR aircraft specifically from 1993 was like looking through a straw. The arrival of the 1/35 Kitty Hawk MH-60L kit was a huge help in my endeavors as many modelers began showing their builds and new details they provided greatly assisted (and frustrated) my build; there were a lot of differences with each helicopter and particularly the early A model which I eventually learned the actual Super 62 on October 3rd was-

MH-53J Pave Low III 1/48 Conversion

His stuff is great, it's such a shame. I had successful transactions from him in the beginning and then got burnt. Communication was always worryingly sporadic. I'd reach out to Blackops3d for sure, I've got some of their MH-53 things and they too are good. -
I had the Trump 1/48 J-20, I worked and fiddled, planned and pre painted then finally threw it away. The fit was clumsy, there was going to be a lot of sanding around the intake/forward fuselage area, I just couldn't get it all to fit nicely. Bad edge seams were going to need filler with sanding and the sharp edges were going to suffer. I wasn't impressed with the cockpit either, the chair was a Lazyboy and the Meng kit was looking better every day. I have the Meng, I did compare the two kits to see if there was anything salvageable from the Trumpeter, not really. I will say

Awesome job, that's gotta be worth the extra effort. I tried to model a pinewood derby car on that scheme once upon a time.

And it seems to rub off easily, he's filthy. Got any more timely photos of intake trunking?

I'll see how well the 1/48 Eduard intake screens hide them, I had thought if it was as you suggest then I'd open up the inspection hatches to shine some light in. For the love of modeling, we'll see... or we won't, but at least have the great satisfaction of knowing it's there.

I just received a pair of 3D printed intake ducting for the 1/48 Tamiya and was wondering what color to paint them, hoping they might be light colored (otherwise why bother). These photos aren't conclusive but I'm going with a grimy white.

Was it good? I never saw it used in a finished model.

Brilliant, thank you!
