Popular Post Tail-Dragon Posted April 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted April 29, 2019 (edited) Here's my 1/72 Italeri/Wingman C-130J-30 Stretched Hercules operated by the RCAF. It started out as a Testors/Italeri AC-130a 'Spooky' with a lot of scratchbuilding and modifications. I'm very happy with how it turned out, hope you like ... Thanks for looking, Colin Edited April 29, 2019 by Tail-Dragon add photo's 75 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Delta 210 Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I would be very happy as well! That is absolutely stunning, and probably the best Hercules model that I have seen on BM. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Outstanding results!!!!! 😎 Agree, I worked on five different airframes in the CAF/RCAF, including fighters, the Hercules is still my first love. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PZL104 Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 (edited) Very impressive, a very nice build and very realistic weathering. It's definitely not easy to make a one color camo scheme look that good! Edited April 30, 2019 by PZL104 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonyot Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 Thats a beaut,...... I didn`t know that the RCAF had stretched Herks either! Beautiful modelling,..... I intend to get started on an RAF stretched C.3K variant myself soon and you have inspired me, Cheers Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
