Skii Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Well, I've decided on my next big project, and I have to say I'm looking forward to it. I'm going to tackle the old Revell 1/32 Apache and update it to a British Army WAH-64D - I know, I'm a glutton for punishment So, apart from the Flightpath set, is there anything esle out there that I should be aware of for this kit, and assuming I scratchbuild the D model sponsons anyone got any suggestions on how to tackle the Radome ? cheers John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Reeely? Have you ordered any gubbins from the RealSpace people, or are you going to build it OOB? Will you be using the television headed spacemen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 Is this a BM record for going off-topic Well done on this effort Skii, I always wanted to do this but thought it was too tall an order. Good luck - we're all counting on you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skii Posted October 23, 2010 Author Share Posted October 23, 2010 Thanks for the input peeps, and yes for a fraction of a moment the Babybel thing had occured to me The sponsons are a challenge, I did a 'D' conversion on an old 1/72 project which isn't 100% accurate but proved to me it was possible.. So, here is the beginnings of the 1/32 project And here is the size comparison if you want to see what a 1/32 Apache looks like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smeds Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 Might I suggest you make some resin copies of the sponsons and radome, you will sell a few I'm sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
