Scratchbuilt! That IS amazing!
You know, one thing I've found since being on FSM forums, is that there are waaay too many other modeling and kit forums out there for me to look through and keep track of. If I did, I'd have ZERO time for modeling Smile [:)] Thanks for sharing.

The FEVER... can't you feel it now? Wink [;)] It's catching on, and will only get worse... until the day when these forums are populated with fantastic Chinook builds from all around the world! Big Smile [:D]

Been a long time coming, but we're blessed to be the modeling generation that will finally see it happen! Thanks for turning us on to the link of this fantastic build, Gino!! Smile [:)]

Take care,
Frank

Howdy Gino,

Many thx for posting the link to that very nice article :-) I only WISH the very talented gent had thought to make Masters of his moulds so that he could share the FULL SIZE glory of a 1/35th Chinook with all of us!!

Hey Gino.....maybe you should consider building one of these....;-)

Tread.

Oh, BTW there 'oldhooker', I see you have a "Chinook Group Build '05" banner in your sig'......do you have any more info on that, or could you point me to it?
Thx.

No thanks, I'll wait for the Trumpeter Hook to come out. Sounds like a great item for next Christmas. I hope Santa is listening.

Yep, saving up the pennies starting now, and I'll have to get some kits done this year to make room for it as well. Oh, well, that's a small price to pay to get my hands on this one.
A day in the Corps is like a day on the farm; every meal is a banquet, every paycheck a fortune, every formation a parade... The Marine Corps is a department of the Navy? Yeah...The Men's Department.
