    Tamiya 1/72 Mil Mi-24 Hind

    Hi all,

    This is a kit I built a few moons ago, when I first started airbrushing, and just before I joined Scale Model Forums. At the time I was very bad at masking canopies and not too good at weathering raised detail as can be seen in the poorly painted canopy.

    I have cleaned it up and taken some photos, but there is still some wear and tear on it from being used and picked up and touched etc...
    I have also done up a video with my new Tamiya rotating display stand, and I must say it really makes a difference.

        Looks great to me Bob, I wouldn't have guessed that was your first airbrush job.

              Nice one. I like all the lumps and bumps of a Helicopter, and the Hind, sure has a few of those.

                    Thanks all.

                    @Joe. Yeah its not the best of kits difficult fit and raised detail but put some work in and a decent result is possible
