Mike Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 A very prompt finish, but I must tell you those photos are a bit large, and are around 400kb, which is quite a lot for an online image. We usually recommend a maximum of 1280 wide or 800 tall, and a Kb count of below 200kb if you can. It stops people waiting about for multiple photos, and also blaming the forum for being slow! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pacificmustang Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Beautiful build Mark. You've done that Academy kit justice, Its a Seaknight though. You've accidentally typed skyknight Regards Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold55 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Very nice Build! I have built this same kit and although it does not look quite this good I think this is a great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariado Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Bonza build of a cool chopper. I remember seeing one of these flying very close from the deck of the USS White Plains berthed next to the Fremantle Passenger Terminal. Taking stores out to the USS Constellation moored in the Gage Roads. 🐸 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Selwyn Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 And I was always told that this helicopter was called a SEAnight! The Skynight has wings that didn't go round, not intentionally anyway! Selwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devo Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Nice "Phrog" well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wlad Posted January 7, 2020 Share Posted January 7, 2020 Beautifully done. One minor nitpick though: either Academy goofed on the rotors, or you managed to install the rear rotor upside down. The rotors should spin in opposite directions from each other, as in this Wikipedia photo https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_Vertol_CH-46_Sea_Knight#/media/File:CH-46_Sea_Knight_Helicopter.jpg Cheers, Wlad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
