Fire Fighting Helo

Ahhhhhhhhhh.............

Ahhhhhhhhhh.............

Here's a couple of examples of the landing lights with the little lens.

The Apache didn't come with the anti collision beacon, so I made one out of a piece of clear sprue. I sand the outside and gave it a dip in future. Then I drilled out the center and added some paint. It looks better than nothing at all.

Here's the rotor assembly after the repaint and re weather. Also, here's the other things that have been occupying some of my time.

Eddie, that helo is coming along great! I love your work on the rotors and the little beacon. I also like those other builds you've been working on too. You're amazingly productive!

I've got a choice between VAW-117 and 121. I haven't made up my mind yet, although the Bluetails look the best to me. B) I wish I could find some decals from the Liberty Bells when they were on the Midway.( My first ship when I was in the Navy) Also, if anyone needs some 1:144 French Navy E-2 decals, let me know.

Thanks BDB! I'm hoping to finish fairly soon, Because my KC/B-17 is calling from it's box to be worked on and the Hogzilla is glaring at me from it's box, saying
" Get started Bub!"

Fantastic, that FH-64! But what's the story on the Hustler?

Thanks JHM and Ollie Yesterday I put the burner cans and flaps on. Plus, I'm doing a little experimentation with bare metal foil( the little "access" panels on the nacelles) They should blend in after another clear coat. I might put more on later in strategic places.

Eddie you really have a thing for B-58s! Very very impressive! It'll look smashing on the shelf next to the one in SEA camo! Blue-ribbon winners in my book!

And that fire-fighting helo is totally smokin'! Love the progress you've made!

That Hustler         !


Love the colour scheme on it! And you're a brave man to tackle so much white and red.......yuck! Nice job, I just hate doing it myself.

Where is the flame thrower. Its a fire fighting chopper, so it should have a flame thrower to fight with fire.
