shark64 Posted January 10, 2014 Author Share Posted January 10, 2014 Spent the day gluing all the parts. I had to insert few brass rods in order to support some of the parts. I was afraid that I may break some stuff transporting the Huey....so a little more work than expected. Heres how it looks right now. I did have some paint bleed on the overhead windows, I l try to clean that up a bit. Oliver shepard, Uilleann and Out2gtcha 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark64 Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 I know a lot of update lately but I am pushing to get this finished. Overhead windows did not come out as sharp as I wanted so I did a light mist around the frame to blur out the mistake, I also did a light mist around cabin windows( that was always going to be like that). The front windshield came ok for my taste, I was hoping for a little crispier.. I sprayed a light sand color on the bottom of the helo in preparation of the pastel work at the end. Heres how it looks now. Oliver Mal_Belford and Uilleann 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Peterpools Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Oliver Just keeps getting better and better but theo only problem is when you cross the finish line, there won't be any more updates to enjoy and appreciate. Keep 'em coming Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leadsled105 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Even the word BEAUTIFUL doesn't come close to describing this piece of art. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shark64 Posted January 11, 2014 Author Share Posted January 11, 2014 Thanks guys. Just noticed on the photo that I need to do some drybrushing touchups on the base. Oliver Uilleann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony in NZ Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 There are not enough superlatives to express the magnitude of this build, and the enjoyment of watching it come together. This has by far been the best modelling thread on the net for a long time. Thank you for taking the time to document it for us all, I learnt a lot and I am sure many others did too.
