veliko_pile Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 Hi, I've bought an old Hasegawa MH-6 in 1/48. I will be doing the IAF version of this little helicopter, I have already the IsraDecal set. Someone have like a walkaround of the heli, or some photos? Also , I've received a tinted glass, but I need a clear glass in order to do a IAF version, do you have an idea where I can get a clear glass? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

veliko_pile Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Thank you! This is all I need! Now I only need to find a clear sprue , not a tinted one.. One one more thing, anyone producing Photoetched for this kit? I'll get the IscaCast set, but I was thinking something for the cokcpit or exterior Quote Link to post Share on other sites
f4u4 nut Posted October 21, 2012 Share Posted October 21, 2012 (edited) The MD-500 CHP #1643 has the clear canopy glass. CMK has photo-etch and a conversion for MH-6F/J #4276. SAM#31 October 2009 has photos and 1/48 drawings of the IAF MD-500 Defender. Edited October 21, 2012 by f4u4 nut Quote Link to post Share on other sites
veliko_pile Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 So I would have to buy a whole new model? Maybe someone here have a spare clear glass Quote Link to post Share on other sites
veliko_pile Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Was this the standard layout of the back section or? http://data3.primeportal.net/hangar/isaac_gershman/md-500/images/md-500_17_of_62.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
veliko_pile Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 Hi, tody I've received the CMK interior set for the OH-60 helicopter. I'm starting to do modifications to bring the interior to a MD500 look. I don't know what do with the area behind the pilots. The set give 2 folding seats. I'm doing a Israel version of the MD500, should I put the two seat there or something else? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Loach Driver Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 The walkaround of the MD500 in post #2 has some good photos of the electronics in the rear compartment. I think only the scout version of the Defender flown by the IAF might have had seats in the rear. LD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
veliko_pile Posted November 5, 2012 Author Share Posted November 5, 2012 That's what I was thinking, I'll have to scratch build all that. Someone have some other photos of the rear part, that are not in the walkaround in Prime portal? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
