HNTR Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 I have been working on this for a while now but have taken many breaks, as I usually do with all models. I have most of the cockpit done with just a little more detailing it will be complete. LMK what you guys think and where improvements can occur. Thanks.
mustang1989 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 Dang Mark! That looks really good! Is that icky green what those guys really use on the IP? Who needs instrumentation lighting with that? lol Good work and good attention to detail!
HNTR Posted November 30, 2013 Author Posted November 30, 2013 Thanks guys. That green is definitely ugly but it is the color the Russians used. Looking at alot of their camo schemes I think they might be color blind.
mustang1989 Posted November 30, 2013 Posted November 30, 2013 That thing must be huge being in 35th scale!!! I saw a Mig-31 being built on another forum with that same green in the cockpit. I figured that must be the norm for those guys on interior color.
Edward Gore Posted December 1, 2013 Posted December 1, 2013 Your detailing skills is what's making this kit awesome!
HNTR Posted December 1, 2013 Author Posted December 1, 2013 Thanks everyone for your kind words, it is appreciated.
mustang1989 Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 (edited) I'm looking forward to seeing you build this Mark! I don't know why we like to build, "The Bad Guys" stuff sometimes. I mean there aint nothin' like a good ol' P-51 Mustang, Huey or Blackhawk helicopter or Sherman tank , but the "other guys" stuff just draws some of us like a moth to a flame. It's got to be curiousity that draws us to something different. Models like the one you are building here just looks cool! Keep it coming, Joe P.S. Just a thought but we could start a small group build here in All the Rest with the Fw190 D-9 I'm going to build and the Hind that you are building for starters. I dunno what we could call it yet , maybe the "All the Rest" Group Build? I'm starting up on the D-9 coming up on the 1st of January. Interested? I suppose we could run it by Harry and then start a GB feeler to see if anybody is interested. Edited December 2, 2013 by mustang1989
Danno Posted December 2, 2013 Posted December 2, 2013 Cockpit detailing is amazing! What color is that green? I need to get some of that.
HNTR Posted December 5, 2013 Author Posted December 5, 2013 Thanks again everyone. Danno, the color that I used is Model Master Enamel "interior blue/green. Mustang1989, The reason I decided to build this kit is more for the fact that I am very interested in helicopters ever since I was in the military. The Russian Hind MI Mil 24 helicopter was very advanced for its time. It had a vast job ranging from attack to medevac to troop carrier. I did build the Blackhawk and won first in my local IPMS contest. Here are some pics: I would also be interested in a community build but do not have the know how or computer skills to start it.
mustang1989 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 You are tha man!!! Oh my .....holy...............you gotta be................that looks great!!!!
