Starfighter Posted October 26, 2020 Share Posted October 26, 2020 This looks absolutely stunning, Pete! It's just a shame the surfaces don't look like this "from the box". Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easixpedro Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Holy smokes, that’s looking GOOD! I can’t wait to see your weathering on those rivets... Pete Fleischmann 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Fleischmann Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Thanks all for the kind words! I need to sort out the un-sprung landing gear as this will be an inflight display. It’s just a matter of extending the oleo strut AND the section of the gear leg forward of the wheel attach point. the paint and construction sequence is not like an airplane- more like armor! more paint on rivets- the whole fuselage was dry brushed with a lighter shade of Gunship Grey- the rivets are very robust, and didn’t flinch at all under the abuse. couldn't be happier with the Archer rivets! cheers Pete Edited October 27, 2020 by Pete Fleischmann Marcel111, Ol' Scrapiron, vvwse4 and 24 others 27 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starfighter Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 The surface detail looks just stunning. I have to keep myself from starting my SH-60B right away - I have to resist!! Pete, how much of the custom sheet have you used so far? Are there enough rivets or is it way too much? Pete Fleischmann and Derek B 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
