another huey...unique
Posted by fermis on Wednesday, February 4, 2009 12:52 PM

 this is panda/dragons 1/35 offering. i built this for my dad to replicate the one he crashed in(modelled before the crash). no injuries, but he did manage to hit a gov. pickup out in the only field for miles. my dad commanded G troop/1st cav. in ft. knox ky. 75-79. btw, the accident was due to engine failure. i really like the camo scheme on this bird. when i find all the photos from the accident, i'll share them. anyway here she is. (this is the only build i did not weather, my dad said his birds were kept extremely clean!)

I AM into helos and am a Huey nut on top of that.  All I can say is WOW, you're dad should be very proud!  I can't wait to see more photos of the real bird.  Thanks for sharing your build.  The cammo looks awesome!

Excellent Huey Build fermis Thumbs Up [tup]

As the other's have said the camouflage scheme is teriffic and certainly unusual . I think the whole build is absolutely perfect .
