Clean flawless painting and the minute detailing is AWESOME.. WOW!!!! Hi Houston. Sorry! for the late answer. Glad you like the Huey. Thanks. Moved up to the overhead windows. I have been praticing with clear resin on a scrap Huey. I wanted to have the windows as flush to the frame as I could. Now I have to deal with the front windshield (hug gaps all the way around) Heres a few photos. Edited November 17, 2009 by shark 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Headroom Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 (edited) Oliver My gast is totally flabbered. Stunning, simply stunning. MH If I ever make a model half as good as yours, you will still be twice as good as me Edited November 23, 2009 by Max Headroom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark 64 Posted November 25, 2009 Author Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hi Max Thanks so much. All it is is patience. I am sure anyone can produce the same results. Remember it takes me about a year to finish ONE model.At this rate the Huey might take more. Here the latest on the skids. Oliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark 64 Posted November 29, 2009 Author Share Posted November 29, 2009 Hi Guys snall update. I ended up doing some ground handling wheels for the Huey since it will be towed.

keefr22 Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 Hi Oliver, I don't know how I managed to miss all your Huey threads before, but I've just had a great time reading through them all! Your scratchbuilding, & painting, is absolutely fantastic, unbelievably beautiful work! One thing I didn't see (I probably missedit too!) is what scale your Huey is? Looking forward to your future updates! Keef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
