1/72 AC-130H, Desert Storm


Recommended Posts

Built from the 1/72 AMT kit, the only mods I did were to sand out the terrible windscreen panel etching and file flat the panels (which is a big issue with this kit). I also sanded a 'pinch' into the radome as the nose looks too fat.

 

I also added the antennas for a Desert Storm period aircraft.

While not an expert on the real thing, I get a strong sense that your shaping works around the cockpit and nose really nailed the look.

The various subtle shades of the finish also give it great realism.

I'm applauding your work enthusiastically!

Lovely work Ray, and a very effective display too - it looks great in action.

 

All the best, Jeff
