So I just wondered if anyone was interested in having a look at how one of the larger scale Helicopters from Kitty Hawk goes together? I haven't seen too many of these beasts on the forum so not really sure what the appetite is for them....also since Kitty Hawk's gone tits-up I'm guessing probably not much!? Anyway I've built a couple of these things now and love building them and wanted to add a another to the little nest of Hawks so thought I'd give the Ocean Hawk a bash.
Okay, this will be the 1/35 Kitty Hawk SH-60F Kit Number KH50007...will probably add a few bits and here and there and intend doing it with the blades at full extension rather than folded...I think they look kindda sad and dejected with the wings folded...these are Hawks...they're mean looking sweethearts so I like to have them in all their glory. Just puzzling over which scheme to do though....was thinking of this one....
or
but not sure as sometime next year I'm planning to build the HJ-60 Coast Guard version...so it'll be a make it up as I go along sort of thing. This beast will probably take several months as I'm a pretty slow builder but I think the idea will be to point out some of the oddball things about the kit and the parts and play around with scratch building some bits and bobs...nothing major.
Anyway I'll start putting together some piccies and stuff as I go along.
Thanks for looking
Cheers
