Well guys this one went fast and I finished it last night, I started on Tuesday.  This is the old Monogram Huey Cobra in 1/72 and it was a fun build.  I used Microscale decals to finish it off. B)

Ah....I've built that kit a few times !

Cobras rule. Someday I'd like to do the Evolution of the Huey/ Cobra in 72nd scale.

Great job, btw.......and what markings are those ? looks kinda Isreali with half a confederate flag on the tail ! The General Le ?

It's Superscale 72-384, the markings are for "King Cobra" 114th Assault Helo "Knights of the Vinh Long AAF, RVN, June 1971.  I just finished reading a book "Snake Driver! Cobras in Vietnam" and had to build one.

Very nice! B) Always did love the Cobra. Have you seen the Cobra that flies for the Forestry Service? Good job.

Sorry, don't know what happened, here's the whole pic.

That is one colourful looking Snake. Looks a bit odd with the chin turret missing though.
