Ricardo Hernandez Severino
Alexandria, Virgina
Ricardo built an Aeroteam 1/72 scale Mil Mi-2 helicopter for a friend who flew one. He replaced the seats and controls with scratchbuilt parts, and added an avionics rack and panels he cobbled from “broken ailerons and rudders.” He opened the door and windows using a dental tool, hobby knife, files, and sandpaper. A swatch from a microphone wind sock helped detail the intake. Markings are a combination of Aztec and kit decals.
