Antony Robertson Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 Hi all After doing lots of searching for a nice scheme, i came across the Xtradecal 1/48 Lynx sheet (48110) and liked the look of the Brazilian helicopter, so decided to build that. The decals have now arrived, so along with the Airfix HMA.8/Mk88 kit, that is hopefully what i'll do. I'm at work at the moment so can't post pictures, but hopefully it should look something like this: http://www.airliners.net/photo/Brazil---Navy/Westland-AH-11A-Super/2315686/&sid=2e140c5ebaa5600bd57180e5ce8ac446. Pictures and progress to follow shortly Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Antony Robertson Posted December 15, 2013 Author Share Posted December 15, 2013 Hi Colin There's a lot of options on the sheet including Army Air Corps, Royal Navy, South Korea, Portugal, Brazil and Germany Here is the link, i'm also quite taken with the two tone sand AH-1GT option, but it looks like a lot of conversion work to me.http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/X48110 Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynx7 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Anthony, quite a straight forward conversion to AH1GT. All you'll need is older metal blades and the longer tail horizontal tail stab. Get hold of RotorCrafts excellent conversion and its all in there. As a guide, have a look here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
