Academy 1/48th scale AH-64D Longbow w/ tiger stripes
Posted by narkaus1 on Wednesday, November 28, 2012 1:43 AM

Hi, this is my first post, so bear with me. I just got back in the modeling game and alot has changed since I did them as a kid. Like, i don't play with them and i don't want them to suck. I've done a couple but still don't have the nuts to airbrush, but my last one turned out okay. Soon as i get on a computer, i'll post the pics. Guess i shoulda just waited, but they'll be up pronto.

Here we go.

Hello.  I too have taken a long break from building models and just returned back to the game as well.  Looking forward to seeing your progress as I'll also try to post up some photos down the road.

Oh, and it's mostly tamiya spray paint.
