Navy Bird Posted February 18, 2013 Share Posted February 18, 2013 I keep getting up to get me coat, but something keeps pulling me back. What is it? Unbelievable modelling skills on full display? Yep, that's it. Cheers, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martian Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Stunning Oliver! Now go and put it somewhere where you can't possibly break it! I can't help but feel that we would hear the nervous breakdown this side of the pond if this one goes down the toilet! Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildagreek Posted February 25, 2013 Share Posted February 25, 2013 Oliver, you're nuts. The last thing that engine needs is "a little life" adding to it. It's a prize winner on it's own! Get the bloody thing finished! Superb work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judging a model show here in Los Angeles today but will get back to the Huey later on today. working on putting all the pieces for the main rotor then painting process next.

brianthemodeller Posted March 6, 2013 Share Posted March 6, 2013 Your attention to detail is amazing! May I ask, though, what stops the engine rolling off the trolley? Normally I wouldn't be bothered about such things but since you have dealt with every other detail! Oh, and before I get lynched, this is meant as a compliment to Oliver's skill and NOT a criticism!

shark 64 Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 (edited) Hi Very valid remark about the engine. I did add two yellow straps around the engine. I just did not update the photos yet. Already working on main rotor. Wil post soon. Nobody is getting linched on my watch. Oliver Edited March 7, 2013 by shark 64 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
