bar side Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 (edited) I am quite used to seeing and hearing Apaches, living just down the rad from Wattisham, so when a Revell kit turned up in a local model shop for change from £10 I thought I would have a go. Not the UK version, but the Royal Netherlands Air Force colourful one. So to make this more difficult I thought I would build in some lights and motors. The rotors both turn and the anti collision lights work. It should have port & starboard lights but they failed after the body went together. Anyway, this is how she looks. Hope you like it Edited December 2, 2017 by bar side 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James B Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Thank you for sharing your progress of this build, it's been a delight to follow along with. That final picture of it in front of the HAS with the airfield background... Just beautiful. Really great job @bar side, I look forward to the next WIP. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bar side Posted December 4, 2017 Author Share Posted December 4, 2017 Cheers @James B still have a plan to make a video of lights flashing & rotors starting up while posed in front of the HAS. Then edit on the sound from that real start up video that is on line. But then Christmas may get in the way! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
