Reini78 Posted December 30, 2017 Share Posted December 30, 2017 #27/2017 Ok, this is now definitely my dad´s last model for 2017 The old Italeri (Testors) kit built oob, only added the antenna on the tail boom. Would have preferred the Hasegawa kit but it hasn´t been produced for some time now and is hard to get. When I finally managed to get one, my dad was already halfway with the Italeri kit and kept going with it. Not the best or most correct kit, also the model turned out with some glitches, but nevertheless we hope you like it. Painted with an olive-grey acrylic selfmix. Build thread here The model shows a chopper of 1-82nd Attack Helicopter Regiment, called "Wolfpack", Dharhan, Saudi Arabia 1991. Don´t know if this scheme is correct or if it´s just an artist´s fantasy, found no pic.
