Rotorman Posted December 20, 2022 Author Share Posted December 20, 2022 Help, I am debating if I add the heat shields inside the cowlings, if I do most of the details will disappear.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Loach Driver Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 Would it ever have flown with the heat shield removed? If so, leave it off. LD. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UH-1Mad Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 I'm sure even you could make the heat shielding look great if you do go down that road. beautiful work as always Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted December 20, 2022 Author Share Posted December 20, 2022 Won't do heatshields. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
midnightprowler Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Yeah it would be a shame to cover up all that beautiful work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rotorman Posted December 26, 2022 Author Share Posted December 26, 2022 Finished the cowlings and started on the screens. It takes a good amount of time to measure and cut to make the screens fit into the holes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rotorman Posted December 28, 2022 Author Share Posted December 28, 2022 Nose is done. Moving on to the tail rotor. I think I am getting close to closing up fuselage. So here's what's left to do. Build base Build truck and crane and find or create figures....and paint. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
HeavyArty Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Looks good. Good use of the PE rivet plates inside the nose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Working on the tail rotor today. I changed the angle of the blades(per photos i have found) PE was tricky so I am remaking it with styrene. Are you getting the new KA 29 from Trumpeter?

Hi Oliver, Been lurking about, keeping my keen eye on you. All you do with your current build (as well as other ones) just driving me crazy. LOL Cheers and very happy modeling in 2023! p.s. And I hope you to present at least one of your everlasting builds before 2023 gives turn to 2024. 😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
