ACH-47 Chinook Gunship


Borisz

Recommended Posts

Good morning, Vietnam!

 

This is my part for the group build, an Italeri ACH-47 in 1/72.

As you can see I have an Eduard PE sheet for it, I guess it will be useful.

I still have an ongoing build so it have to wait a bit.

A great choice Borisz!

A Chinook is always a popular choice but a gunship one is even better! The armed Chinook program is a fascinating one and from what I have read they had a real impact whenever they turned up, not surprising considering how much ordnance they carried.

I look forward to your build and welcome to the GB!

welcome along Borisz and what a great choice.

 

I have to admit I don't (well didn't now) much about these Chinook Gunships....but boy they do look awesome!

 

It looks to be a nice model, and you have some fine PE to go with it as well. :thumbsup:

 

Good luck with this build...another of a growing list I must follow.

  I have been trying to get my hands on one of these kits but they are pretty hard to track down.  I will however be following this build with great interest.  That looks likes the Chinook kit at Italeri/Revell are still releasing now?

 

  Gotta be honest though, that is quite literally a "battle bus".  Would be good in a zombie apocalypse I'd imagine? :)

 

  Kind Regards,

I bought it almost 15 years ago, I guess it is not availible now.

That's too bad Borisz, that doesn't look very promising indeed. Well there's always the KUTA (Kick Up The A**) GB, which is meant for finishing exactly this type of builds!

 

By the way, did you steal bits of plastic from a painting or something?

The top of a Bords Eve box. ;)

It's a shame you couldn't complete her Borisz, a Chook in the gallery would have been nice to see.

 

Yeah the KUTA is a good place to continue the build if you are able.

 

 

Is that KUTA still open for other months? :)
I hardly can go on this
bureaucracy here. :D
