Question: Why no love for a 1/48 H-19???


Recommended Posts

  • 3 weeks later...

I just started a 1/48th Revell H-19 of the VNAF for the Far East Group Build. The wheels and tires are horrible, the engine has some gross deviations from scale, the side windows are way too thick and have too much curve/bulge and the interior is seriously lacking in detail. The fuselage exterior is good and overall, it looks "right".

Gentlemen,

I saw in you a certain interest in the Sikorsky H-19.

I worked a 1/48 Revell model of the H-19 (one HO4S-1) of the US Navy in 2008 and recorded the entire assembly.

If you are interested, I can open a topic here to show how it was step-by-step.

What do you think?

It would be easy for Italeri to upsize their H-19. Why they don't do this is beyond me.

Yup a new H-19 would be great. As for Italeri upsizing thier H-19, how long did they take to upsize the H-34? That was out in 1/72nd for ages I believe.

Please do, I enjoy seeing what you do with basic kits.

I've seen your work. I would love to see such a build retrospective, even though I don't intend to tackle that kit. Watching a master is always educational and a pleasure...

Notwithstanding that, I too would dearly love to have a modern H-19 to do a diorama based on photo of a landing on LST-938.

I am currently building that kit, so I would definitely be interested.
