longpow apache refrence pics???

Tominator,

Whatcha need? I've got lots and can direct you to some really good sites. I haven't built the 72nd scale kit, so I can't really comment on the build, the only ones I've built have been 48th and 35th. Here are a few sites to get you started:

http://aircraftwalkaround.hobbyvista.com/apache/apache.htm
http://www.aircraftresourcecenter.com/AWA1/001-100/walk072_Apache/walk072.htm
http://www.b-domke.de/AviationImages/Apache.html

They're a mix of A and D models, but you should be able to get some good shots there. If you need anything more, drop me a line and I'll see what I've got.

Good Luck!

hey thanks mate, thats plenty!! they will do very nicley :)

btw, is olive drab the right colour to use to paint it? and what colour would the metal have been under the surface(coz i wanna do some weathering)?

cheers!

hey i just checked out b-domke and i noticed that there r 2 colours of the apache? is this the diff a and d models that u mentioned before? id rather paint mine the lighter colour so do u have any suggestions on what colour 2 use?

thanks once again!!!

Tominator,

Nope, there's only one shade of Apache, and that's "Army Helo Drab". It looks different in different light, but they're all the same color. Testors makes a very good Helo Drab in their Model Master line. Not sure if anyone else makes a better approximation of the shade, but I use the MM products and have no problems with em. Also, I prime my helos with black for a nice dark undercoat.

hope that helps!

Oops! As for the under-color, there's yellow zinc chromate and then mainly aluminum underneath.
