This is the fictional 1/72 scale Revell Soviet Kamov Ka-58 Stealth Helicopter that has been made into a "what if" North Korean Ka-58 attack helicopter instead. The model was built pretty much straight from the box except for the North Korean insignia decals which came from the spare parts box at home.
Model is painted overall in Testor Acryl Dark Gull Grey.
Landing gear bay interiors painted Testor Acryl Duck Egg Blue.
Weapons painted a mixture of Testor and Tamiya paints.
Modeling isn't just about how good the gluing or painting, etc. looks. It's also about how creative and imaginative you can be with a subject.
My modeling philosophy is: Don't build what everyone else has done. Build instead what nobody has seen or done before.

If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

A helicopter? Where? On the zwilling version below, at least, I just see a normal aeroplane, a twin-pod flying wing maybe: ;)

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Nice idea, that works. Even though placing it under PRK flag is pretty enthusiastic, Chine markings would have been more subtle.  :thumbsup:
