[MilitaryAircraft101]

Very, Very, VERY, VERY Purrdy...  Good thing the whiffies 2011 is still open! 

[pyro-manic]

Love it, love everything about it! Not something you'd want to run into on a dark night. Or indeed any time.

[Sticky Fingers]

Thanks a lot, guys! And honored to be mentioned for this years Whiffies , even though it won't be eligeble until next year's .

Looks pretty fierce.

Just wondered if I am missing seeing something that all rotary-winged aircraft must have--a thrust-vector jet-pipe, tail rotor, or some other device to oppose the considerable torque of the main rotor (to keep the fuselage from spinning like a top)?

really cool looking thing, looking forward to daylight and Bfan pics

That's way too much credit...

That's a mean looking bird, and I really like the digi-pattern camo on it.  Nice recovery on the windscreen, too. 

Does it stagger in mid-air when the big gun goes "boom"?

[Captain Canada]

Beauty. That is alot of firepower ! Funny tho, the same thing happens to me around here.... I just love 72nd scale choppers, but everytime the rotor is added, it just seems to kind of go off....?

Paint looks awesome too.

Fan-bleeding-tastic model! 

[Army of One]

That is awesome.....great result there.....great clean up on the canopy.....I'd have gone for B as well.....H

[Sticky Fingers]

Thankyous all round!
Quite pleased with the end result myself, too.
Hope the next build will be just as much fun to build as this one.

As promised: some pictures of the finished item, in daylight, on suitable underground:







Case closed.
