Looks good to me Rick. Nice paint job, and it looks like it’s subject. What’s not to like……

Hi Rick
As has already been said that is a really nice result and especially at braille scale.

Nice Rick, Very nice indeed!!! "Straight out of Haight in '68 and far out man". Did the kit come with more armaments or only the few you've added? These were usually armed to the teeth.............

Thanks To All of you for the nice comments.......Still waiting on glue to dry on the main rotor install. Once I can handle it, I'll take a few more pics for the GB thread and Yes Chris it does have stars on it......just barely visible behind the left wing. Allen, there are more armaments ........just ran out of patience.......might stick more on later. Glad you all stopped by.

Now I know why I like that Camo scheme I was born in ‘68.

Great finish take a deep breath it’s over Buddy. I still like that Camo. I wonder what a VW bus would look like painted in that Camo. I hope you will try another “Wingy” in the future maybe a 1/72 one???

Thanks Lee, Someone mentioned a P-51 GB at some time in the future.........if that comes to pass, I'll probably do up my 1-87 scale Mustangs for that build, but NO 1-72 scale, as it just won't fit on my work bench.......way too Big!! :tongue-out3: :tongue-out::smiling5::thumb2:

I’m pretty sure that will happen if I can get enough people. That would be great to see you build one in 1/87 scale. About mid June I’m going to announce a proposal for a Mustang (Aircraft) GB. I keep looking at all my Mustangs in my stash and having a hard time to choose one but I’ll have a definite one by the time proposal time for a GB. I just can’t get get the mojo to build a Whirlybird yet.

Well you've done it buddy, and it looks ok as well . At least you succeed doing it where as my attempt in the black art of working in a small scale ended in the bin!

Matron and the committee were impressed , Matron however has offered to give you something much stronger to achieve the floaty feeling " far out man " !


In the meantime it's a well deserved,

Cool man .

Thanks JR.......much appreciated. I can't remember a more complicated build. It sure taxed my patience to the limit!
No "floaty" stuff for me as I am through with "flying" for awhile at least. Regards to Matron......Tell her to "push off" and go sit on her Syringe! :tongue-out3: :smiling5: More pics. to be posted in the completed section asap.
