Oh man, what magnificent work! I feel like I could just sit right down and start flippin' switches! Brilliant work once again Fermis!
Oh the possibilities Bruce! I've built over 54 different helicopters in 1/72 scale and the variety would astound you.speedgraflex wrote:Every time I see the way you paint a cockpit, I want to send you mine, lol. Helicopters are yet to grab hold of my modeling mind, but your work gets me very excited by the possibilities in 1/72.

We are modelers - the same in spirit, in hunger to insanely buy newly released kits, hustlers in hiding our stash from our better halves and experts in using garbage as replacements for after-market parts.

Great looking Start Fermis!
I love Hinds - A beast of a Helicopter. I have some pictures somewhere of me sat in one.

Yup, start with the classic dynamic duo of the UH-1 Huey and AH-1 Cobra and take it from there... Loaches and Sh!+hooks... Blackhawks, Apaches, Little Birds... Hips, Hinds, Havocs... Lynx, Gazelle, Puma... even sci fi stuff like Airwolf and Blue Thunder...Duke Maddog wrote:Oh man, what magnificent work! I feel like I could just sit right down and start flippin' switches!

Thanks again all....can't believe it's been almost 5 months....
Work seriously got in the way this summer! I did get little bits of time here and there. For the last couple days, I've been hammering away on the finish. Ready for a flat coat and their final parts...
