Liberator24 Posted September 3, 2006 Author Share Posted September 3, 2006 Well, for the rotor heads. As you can tell she is FINALLY coming a long. The belts are simple, just tape and styrene, but I am impressed with the way they have turned out. As usual, any advice from the real deal is appreciated. Well, enjoy....

otis252 Posted September 3, 2006 Share Posted September 3, 2006 Looking good so far. I like that preshading on the interior. Adds kinda a shadow effect, which seems right to me on the inside of a parked helo. I gotta get going on mine. Let's see some more. Chuck Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VFA-103guy Posted October 23, 2006 Share Posted October 23, 2006 Nice build Jim! Looks like you may have had a little trouble with the decals silvering in the one right tail shot. More than likely not your fault, I heard Academy's decals are notorious for silvering in spots even if a decent gloss coat is applied. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Liberator24 Posted October 23, 2006 Author Share Posted October 23, 2006 Brian, I got a good sun shot at it this morning with my dad, and it pee'ed me off. They waited to silver until the wash to show their true colors. Great kit, though. I am eyeing the -53, but I have GB's to work on now. Thanks, and glad to see your business is continuing to prosper. After Alabama's football season this year, someone needs to.... Roll Tide....soon? -Jim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
