shark 64 Posted April 14, 2013 Author Share Posted April 14, 2013 Worked on adding Archer rivets to the roof. Seal off rivets with future then one light coat of grey to check for flaws: found two, carrier film lifting a bit. Oliver 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heloman1 Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Keep up the great work Oliver, as Tony says time = quality. I particularly like the jack up wheel sets, something rarely seen on chopper models, that along with wheel chocks. The roof riveting looks very good, it certainly adds tot he realism.

shark 64 Posted May 3, 2013 Author Share Posted May 3, 2013 Can't wait to see it finished! and look forward to your next build. No pressure Oliver! Martin Hi Martin Finishing the bottom of the Huey, a lot of sanding to do to fix gap then applying lost rivets.once thats done a little more sanding on the tail then will be ready for paint......At last. I bought the 1/35 Lynx from Revell last week since no date or news on the H34 from Trumpeter in 1/32 scale so I guess my next build will be the Lynx and not the Skyraider as I planned. Ill post potos soon. Thanks for checking in. Oliver Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark 64 Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 (edited) Heres how it looks today. I have ordered few more items from Archer to add to the bootom so Im on hold for now, the sad part is this much work wont be seen.

Bertie McBoatface Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 What a build! I imagine you need those drums to get physical with after such controlled, thoughtful and detailed modelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angels49 Posted May 6, 2013 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Utterly superbly fantastic.....I haven't seen litters and gear look like that since I left SEA, right down to the wear and tear and accumulated dirt. Email the next show your address so they'll know where to send the trophy and save you the time of showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark 64 Posted May 7, 2013 Author Share Posted May 7, 2013 Thanks, Glad to hear weathering is close to what u remember. Going to europe for 3 weeks ....will be back to the Huey with a vengeance after that......lets get this done cause Id like to start my Lynx.

Lynx7 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 ....lets get this done cause Id like to start my Lynx. I'll second that! I'll be drooling at every post mate I can't believe youre about to finish this. What I'd like you to do once you think you've finished it is spend a good year or so dismantling it back to kit form. Truly remarkable build and an awesome piece of engineering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
