Newtonk Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I was out and about looking for a weathered Apache to model, pending the release of the “new” Academy kit next month, when I found this... https://www.boneyardsafari.com/oh-58d-93-0976. Which I was immediately intrigued with as a well weathered helo, veteran of OEF and OIF. There are several other images of this helicopter on the net, too. This Kiowa features several unique markings, including, but not limited to, the large Punisher skull on both side of the rear fuselage, a stylised cowboy & ‘B’ on the port gun pod, Han Solo on the nose, I could go on. Who would be be a good choice to have these made in 1/35; and, how much information is required to do this, please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Newtonk Posted May 1, 2020 Author Share Posted May 1, 2020 Thank you Tank; I’m hoping with Revell releasing their boxing there will be new interest in the subject and therefore new updates / options, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JohnEB Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 I saw this aircraft at the Pima Museum. I was impressed with its armament...something not often seen in museum examples. I would assume it took a fair amount of work to De-mil them...if they aren't replicas...which would have been a lot of work as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Newtonk Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Outstanding! Did you take any images of it? I’m curious about the marking on the port pilot’s door that’s been partially painted over. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
