Rod Bettencourt Posted July 31 Share Posted July 31 Hello all, This is my ICM 1H-1G (early) Cobra with Quinta Cockpit. I used a mix of Model Master and AK paints. I also used the Microdesign exterior photoetch set. This aircraft represents the Executioner of the 235th flown by Capt Lou Bouault out of Daub Ting Vietnam 1969. This was my first ICM kit and I have to say it was pretty good! I used the kits decals which went on fantastic. All photos were taken with my Iphone. As you can see by the indoor pics I am no photographer! The base was built and Designed by Master base maker Tony Quartaro. Thanks for looking.

themongoose Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Superb! When the shots are up close so the horizon sits lower against the model i was hard pressed to tell it was a model. Nice work! CODY, Rod Bettencourt, Martinnfb and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John1 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 That is some really nice looking work. Got the Special Hobby version of the kit in the stash. Can't wait to start her. Just hoping we see some aftermarket decals come out. Martinnfb and Rod Bettencourt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Wow Rod, that is really impressive. The modelling skill is top notch and the photography and photo editing may even be better. Congrats and thanks for sharing. phasephantomphixer, Rod Bettencourt and Martinnfb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy Molitor Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Super impressive! The outside pictures you can't tell its a model. I love the slight weathering and spots on those pull up ceramic armor panels inside the cockpit. The maps & magazines are also a brilliant added touch. Signed former Cobra driver...
