Polish Ka-50 - 1/48 Italeri

[wacek85]

Let's suppose that when Poland was gaining Mi-24 from the Soviets before the end of the Soviet Union's ,comrades were so drunk that mistaked prototype of Ka-50 with Mi-24 and together with Hinds they passed it to Poland As a result, together with Mi-24 it was used in Iraq in 2004. Because it was often mistaked with Russian helicopters , for better identification it has white and red eagle painted on the front of the hull, and a big sign "To the battle!" on the bottom. It was enough...

It's an old Italeri product. Decals it's a mix of Techmod Mi-24 set and the Modelmaker's Blackhawk from Świdnik in 1/72. Paiting was done with Gunze and Tamiya. Weathering is primarily Tamiya pigments and paneliners and AK fluids.
