Zvezda C-130H Hercules

[reini]

Hi there!

 

My choice of model for this GB:

 

 

 

The fuselage. Hellcat is there for size comparison. Masks are the only aftermarket item I'll be using.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Decals. Huuuge walkway decals for the wings. I think I will paint them instead.

 

 

 

Not sure yet on my choice - but it will be either the ROKAF one with green/grey camo or the Japanese grey/blue camo. Both look really nice.

 

 

 

I was so excited that already made a start, but I just realised that the GB has not started yet!  Oh well, I think I'm still safe below the 25% mark - I'll just wait up few days until I continue

 

It is looking really sweet model and excited to build something BIG for a change.

Don't worry we all did some premature unpacking and dry-fitting. 😉

 

It appears that the Russians have some superior construction plans for the C-130 - the KGB was very efficient... My choice would be the Japanese version; it has a great camouflage.

 

Cheers, Michael

Welcome to the Group Build reini.  As you say, your C-130 will be big!  Enjoy the build.

Great choice of subject Reini and kit too.

My choice would be the Japanese one, a very nice scheme.

@reini I really fancy one of these :). I will be watching

@reini I vote for Japanese scheme - it's simply unavoidable and fantastic looking!

It certainly cant be Polish bevause they are E-models, unless the kit covers that?
