scvrobeson Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 Wow, those are really pretty builds. You did a great job on the weathering, and that AH-6 is a tiny little bird. Will have to try one of these. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jmreed76 Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 Oh Wow, Both of those are Amazing models! You nailed the weathering Sir...Going back to drool over these again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fastzx Posted January 11, 2014 Share Posted January 11, 2014 (edited) Excellent work. Yes we will soon bring you over to the proper scale here. I live fairly nearby Ft. Campbell and aparently on one of their training flightpaths as they routinely overfly my house at very low levels. I can always tell when a major deployment or covert ops will happen as the traffic ramps up sharply prior to hearing about operations on the news. Again very nice work.

racedriver25 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 WOW! Those are truly amazing builds. Well done sir. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Just revisiting this. These are amazing. I built the Blackhawk years ago, and it was a lot of work. This build takes it to another level. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usmcski Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Thanks for resurrecting this thread, they are truly stunning builds. I haven't built the -60 yet, but I have tackled the Littlebird (the OH-6, specifically). The windshield/fuselage join is a real PITA, but you wouldn't know it looking at his build. I suspect (hope) that Kitty Hawk has an H-60 forthcoming, time will tell! Semper, Ski Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oppenheimer Posted November 23, 2017 Author Share Posted November 23, 2017 Hi Ski, yes it was a PITA that windshield/fuselage join, but with some patience i good a good fitting, the new KH little bird is on my to do list, right now i am focused on my favorite scale 1/48, i am waiting for some AM stuff to come out before i start a new little bird Jorge Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Usmcski Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Well I'll be patiently waiting to see what you do with the KH offering, you really made that Dragon Littlebird shine! Semper, Ski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomcat14 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Holy Crap, That is some really spectacular work Openheimer. The paint and weather are perfect and really make these models stand out in a crowd. Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funkysmell Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Hi OP Did you ever end up doing a build post on this chopper? I'm curious what the main colour is and how it was applied to get that weathered look. cheers Good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
