1/32 scale Revell AH-64 D Apache

Not mine, but some observations on the Revell AH-64A. It does not come with wire cutters. It was originally produced in the mid to late 1980s and the wire cutters weren't added to AH-64s yet. Also, his paint looks good, but is too green, looks like Testors MM Dark Green. Should be helo drab green, very dark, almost a black-green. Missing most stencils and markings too. Good job, but more of a generic company display piece with little surface detail than a detailed scale model. Don't get me wrong, it looks really good.

damn man, why u have to post that here, ur making my apache look bad!
seriouslys tho, its a nice clean build... more pics would be nice...
mind if i ask some questions? i really like the apache and might one day build a bigger scale one (with totally black rotors cobra!
what colour did u use to paint it, how mix the paint todo the shading, and was it ab'ed or hand painted??
also, did u lerave some parts off, coz i notice that my 1/72 apache has wire cutters(?) ontop of the cockpit and near the gun, while urs doesnt.... im no expert, i just wanna know if the revell kit is accurate or not...
keep up the good work!!

Thanks, Jon, Papa, and John!

I've been working on these Apache suppressors for the last 2 years...here is a cutaway photo of the fixed RH assembly:

Dan,

Lookin good, I'm doing the same to one and its about 85% done. Just out of curiosity, what kind of suppressors are those? I've never seen anything like that on an Apache.
