Pave Hawk Done

	Eventually after a little more than a year of work I finished this helicopter. A big THANK YOU to all the fellow builders who followed my progress and supporte me with their comments. For those who didn't follow my progress in the WIP thread, the model is Academy's 1/35 MH-60G Pave Hawk. I used Eduard's PE-set, Cobra Company's resin update, some scratch built detail, putty and A LOT of patience to get her done. Enough words, here are the pictures (first set): Klaus Thanks to ImageShack for Free Image Hosting
