DONE @p.5 +++ HAL Samudree Baaj (Sea Hawk) Mk. 201, Indian Navy

[Dizzyfugu]

I plan to use the whole fuselage, sans air intakes and aerodynamic surfaces. It's pretty sleek and should work for an AH-64-esque layout. Things will evolve some day on the workbench...

Ducted fan or normal tail rotor? Or will it be a wait and see what you come up with at the time?

Nice work, pretty much as usual Dizzy

[Rick Lowe]

Looking good.

Day #6, in the post-shading process - and in parallel the ordnance takes shape.

Neat!  Very cool project.

[Dizzyfugu]

Thank you. However, work has stalled due to health issues.

[Old Wombat]

Bugger!

Get well soon, mate!

[Dizzyfugu]

Thank you, it's already getting better - a (very) mild allergy shock due to overlooked food ingredients. Life among landmines... 

[Rick Lowe]

Ooh, yeah - I know what that's like...

'Let's add some nuts to this, to spark it up a bit!' 
'Adding nuts will help people increase their protein intake!'

Hope you're better soon, Dizz 

[Dizzyfugu]

Thank you, too. In this case it was apparently corn starch on french fries... I was at least able to identify the source of yesterday's troubles, and it was thankfully not serious. Today is already much better, just still a little tired.

Yeah, tracking down the source is half most of the battle... it gets complicated when it could be one of a number of things, and the effects take time to wear off...

Corn Starch? Yikes - that's a common additive these days, IIRC?

[Dizzyfugu]

Yup, among others that have detrimental effects, beyond nuts and other "popular classics".

Ooooer, I hope you improve quickly Thomas.
