David Walker Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I had a really great time with this group build, what with building my first helicopter in thirty-two years and seeing all the great work that was displayed here. And thanks for all the support! The pictures (sorry for the quality; I got a new digital camera over Christmas and I'm still trying to figure it out): Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doupnik Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Awesome looking snake! What did you use for the non skid on the stub wing? mason Edited December 31, 2008 by doupnik Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted December 31, 2008 Author Share Posted December 31, 2008 (edited) Thanks! And concerning the wings, after the camo. was done I masked off the non-skid areas and used MM Flat Black and then weathered it a little with a drybrushing of RLM66.

Floyd S. Werner, Jr. Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Awesome build. I think that is the first time I've seen that done in those colors. Impressive to say the least. The IPS looks great in there. Glad it worked out for you. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
David Walker Posted January 1, 2009 Author Share Posted January 1, 2009 Thanks everyone! And Floyd, thanks for putting out the IPS units. I was also able to use your resin TOW missile rack on the port side and your AN/ALQ-144 cover. They certainly made my life easier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hope to have them out in the second week of January. There will be an armament sets (seven shot pods, courtesy of Joseph Osborn), Individual TOW launcher racks with and without TOW missiles and finally a Cobra update set (Upgraded exhausts that you won't have to sand and extra detail, ALQ-144 cover, APR-44 antennas, Skid Landing light, and some other little things) . This build definitely motivates me to do one or two or three. Floyd Quote Link to post Share on other sites
