Oh yeah we do like them! :-)
Great builds, especially the insect looking OH-6D ! That chopper will definitely sooner or later end in my stash also.

Great looking helos! I would love to do more helo builds, but the ones I've attempted havent turned out so well. Maybe if I actually bought a decent kit I'd have better luck. The last helo model I did was the old Monogram Huey Hog and it was horrible, massive amount of flash on almost every part, the windows were scratched up and the entire fuselage was warped. I do have the Skunkworks HH-60J in 1/48 and a 1/72 HobbyBoss Hind to attempt one day, we'll see how they turn out.

Thanx for comments
Jelliot i had positive feelings with the two 1/72 hobby boss kits i've completed recently , mi-2 and mi-4 .Italeri have a large choice of helos but they need some attention in build (more than half of my stashed or builded helos are from italeri) and often a good detail level.
For the mi-24 ( an italeri already started some year ago) wishing to try the new zvezdas moulds that seems really great!
