Italeri AH-1W WIP update DONE!!! Pics Page 3

ive been doing a bit more research and ive noticed that alot of these birds dont have the faired off struts like the model shows, neither does it have the wee step on the leading strut, was this common? is my kit still ok or will i need to modify it?

Most later models did not have the faired skid support legs.  They were a very early feature.  It is fine with them, but up to you if you want to change them out. 

cheers, in that case, final touch ups tonight, final assembly, decals, weathering, then done, tommorow night, hopefully lol

shes nearly there, antennas and pitot tube on tonight, hopefully rotors decals and weathering too. ill post pics tonight.

Shes as done as im gonna get her for now. Ill revisit at a later date to do some weathering and weapons.

Enjoy, comments and criticism welcome.

Well, there you go...nicely done!

Why not just go ahead and weather it now???

If I ever call something "done, for now", with the intention of coming back to it, it never happens and it just sits around forever.....undone....til I pitch it!!!!

I say...knock er out!!!

ive got another project on the go atm, i was kinda over it and not enjoying the build anymore. My philosophy is if your not enjoying it. put it down and do something else for a while. so thats what im doing. Check out my rocket power GB, thats my next project.
