U.S. Army Bell OH-58D Kiowa Warrior, 1/35th MRC


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

 

Heres my last project of this year. 

I will build a Kiowa Warrior in service in A-Stan ca. 2007-8. 

I will add the following AM: Fireball decals and M260 pods, Zactomodel detail set and MMS, Armycast FN Herstal M3P gun, Werner Wings update set, Live Resin M4 carbines, etc.

And a lot of scratchbuild.

Ill post some more pics later tonight.

 

Thanks.

Rod.

Hi Rod,

Nice start, indeed. The ins.panel looks promising. As I can see you managed to modify it by adding the air bags.

How about an image or two to show how it turned out from above?

Oh ,BTW, have you ordered some resin stuff from Zactoman to bring some zest to your build?

 

Cheers and happy modeling!

Alexander

Hi guys,

Heres some shots of the model.

Almost done with the interior, just needs some weathering and other small details.

Tail rotor is scratchbuilt, so as the satcom ´´egg beater´´ antenna and other bits. I used some PE from the UH-60 set, specially the seatbelts.

I added the skid shoes to the skids and some photoetch, engine was detailed using wire and stretch sprue.

 

Hope you all like it.

 

Rod.

Very nice! It's gonna be amazing! I hope Zactoman will have resin cast the rotor blades folding kit by the time you are about to hit the home stretch.  ;) Of course, if you opt to have the blades being folded. Just like I did. :)

 

Cheers!

Been some time since i dont make any updates, so here they are. 

Added the smoke grenades, rotor transmission, some interior work on the windshield, tail boom, and other bits.

Feel free to ask any questions.

 

Hope everyone likes it.
