Artoor_K Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 (edited) Hello, I'd like to present ACH-47 Chinook from Vietnam, named "Easy Money", which belonged to "Guns a Go-Go" unit. Model is from Italeri, really nice to put together, only decal's instructions were full of errors. Few decals were in wrong color also. It's painted as usual with Tamiya and Mr. Hobby range.Weathering was done using Tamiya, Ammo Mig's and AK Interactive fluids and pigments.

Harold55 Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 This is just fantastic, beautifully done and armed to the hilt! Nicely weathered too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devo Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 Nice job on that one. You don't see too many built for some reason. I finished mine in 2017(having started it in 2012!😁) I did 413154 "Birth Control", using Zotz decals. Pics are on BM somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted November 22, 2020 Share Posted November 22, 2020 A very well done model of a very distinctive helicopter. Until today I didn't know that version of the CH-47 existed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Unfortunatelly there is no chance to buy Zotz Decals in Poland so I was limited to "Stumpjumper" and "Easy Money". 9 hours ago, SAT69 said: A very well done model of a very distinctive helicopter.

First for tests - "Co$t of Living" . It was a prototype so stayed in US. "Easy Money", "Birth Control" and "Stumpjumper" were send to Vietnam. Only "Easy Money" survived. Now, after restoration, it's on display at Redstone Arsenal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
