Looking very nice as usual

Thanks PKNEC!

Holy cow those exhausts are going to look awesome! Yeah I have plans a foot to get an airbrush still researching compressors

I hope so!! I think they are the centre point of the heli so they got to look good! Still not quite sure how I am going to copy them, but I'll figure something out!

Are you going to put some fine mesh behind them to help block off the vent from a visual standpoint?

Looks great, you are the master of styrene lol.

Re airbrushes I bought this off eBay... It's cheap and cheerful but works pretty well for my purposes!

Thanks Zee! I will be covering the "holes" but not mesh, no mesh on the real one!

Funny that Airbrush kit has been in my watch list for almost two years now!! IF I ever et a bit of spare cash(maybe I'll get a bonus from work.. NOT!!) I will invest in getting one. Glad to hear some feedback on it!

Getting there......

Seeing as those vents are so open you're going to have to build some scale engine details in there

But....but....that will make it too HEAVY!!!!



If you look at the "real" heli, you will notice the are not done yet! I may get to it tonight, but probably not finish it till wednesday as it will take quite a while to get them done.

[Airwolfie]

Done!! All it took was a strip of "rubber", tucked and manipulated to fit and then I added primer for the next coat!!
