MC-130H by Italeri with Flightpath conversion and Wolfpack-decals in 1/72

[Hajo L.]

I'll add an entry here:

 

 

I built this nice combo of an Italeri MC-130E, converted to an "H" Combat Talon II with the conversion set by flightpath and Wolfpack decals.

 

 

The build was without major problems, I liked how the Wolfpack decals perfomed!

 

 

 

Thanks for looking!

Gorgeous Herk HAJO.   I love these special ops birds and yours turned out amazing.

Nice build.

Thank you, guys! I hope I'll get good weather this weekend to take some more pictures outside. It's also my - I think - 8th C-130, and I already have another one waiting to be done as a MC-130E.

Interesting story from a C-130 pilot about the last Hanoi pick up at end of war.   It's a tad long but very worth the read.

Great job! I've got a few hours in the real one too.

@Hajo L., Beautiful work!  Love the special mission Herks.  One of my mentors flew the Son Tay Prison Raid in the early MC-130E-II; archaic by today's standards.  But it shows how much raw courage and skill these guys had to do what they did back then.  Again, beautiful build.  K/r, Dutch
