CallMeOlli Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) Hi! After reading a thread referring to Gulf War Pavehawks, I would like to show mine. I really like Desert Storm birds and helos, so I just had to build this one.I finished it around May 2019. It war the 1/48-Italeri kit. I added a few things: -Eduard Big-ED-Set -Eduard Cal.50-Ammo-Belts (Resin) -RB brass gun barrels fort he Cal.50-guns -RessKit resin wheels -Self casted resin IRCM -modificated UH-1 pilots (Plusmodel) -a lot of scratch-built Details inside and outside If you want to know more there is a build-log in a German modelling board. https://modellboard.net/index.php/topic,59362.0.html Let’s start with the interior: And now here are the photos of the finished little diorama. A small airfield scene is shown in 1991, where the Pave Hawks were used in desert camouflage during Operation Desert Storm / Desert Shield. I hope you like my whirlybird. Best regards Olli Edit: I know, the Aircraft Insignia on the Gearbox-cover is upside down...my bad! Edited July 29, 2020 by CallMeOlli Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paulsbrown Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 Nice! Excellent interior work (I'm making a MH-60A and know there's nothing in the cabin) and painting. Great scheme too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AndrewPerren Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 Great stuff. The base sets it off nicely as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Night Owl Models Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Love your build and your choice of aircraft the two tone brown desert scheme. I am just wrapping up a build of a Ocean Hawk in a rarely seen blue/gray still needs a diorama. You did amazing detail on the diorama and figures at that scale giving me some inspiration.

You Oceanhawk looks stunning! I'm looking forward to see the finished diorama. About 5 years ago I did a Seahawk diorama. It's Revells SH-60B Kit in 1/48 scale.
