                        Hey all you Helo gurus!  In the midst of working on a forced perspective dio of the sinking of the Yamato,  I was inspired to start the Hind that has been in my stash for a while. I have plans to disregard the paint schemes provided in the kit and go with the stereotypical "80's bad guy russians" so famous in any 'Cold War Era incident' movie from the 80's...

                         

                        Right now, I am searching for a pair of pilots for this build.  The kit does come with two seated crew members, but I am looking for a pair of standing crew, does anyone out there have a source?

                         

                         

                        "...failure to do anything because someone else can do better makes us rather dull and lazy..."

                        Mortal as I am,I know that I am born for a day.  But when I follow at my pleasure the serried multitude of the stars in their circular course, my feet no longer touch the Earth...

                        I think that CMK and Reheat make some resin 1/48 communist pilot figures that fit your requests.

                        Quickboost might also have what you need.
