1:72 Revell RAH-66 Comanche

Nice to read that !

I don't know what exact shade of green it should be but it looks great to me. It has a nice crisp and even finish. Cool little base too. Nicely done

It looks really nice overall.  The color is too light though.  The color out of the bottle is correct and should not be lightened at all.  CARC Helo Drab Green is a very dark color.  

This version is not a training version.  There were only 2 prototypes of the helicopter built. They never went past the test phase and were not bought by the US (or any other) military.  The program was subsequently cancelled in '04.  The two prototypes were put in musuems and haven't flown since.

 

Hi again, maybe you've right but being 100% accurate with helo colour in such cheap model wasn't my purpose, especialy that my main goal was to do good postshading.

And when i wrote "training" i was thinking not about real helicopter, but about my modelling skills 

Sorry for misunderstanding

Hmm, base colour was for me too dark so i decided to light it up little a bit. Another issue is that those photos gave to model much more light than it has in reality. And this set is only training one

Thanks for comment mate

Hello!

Lookin' good - but shouldn't the colour for it be darker?

Thanks for sharing and have a nice day
