The second part to my diorama I am going to buy another model of the same scale as the Chinook I'm going to be building.

I LOVE KIT M1278 JLTV-GP

How do I suspend this JLTV beneath the CH-47A Chinook? I cant tell where the hooks for heavy slung loads are. Please help. I can't even find a picture of the Chinook carrying a JLTV on google.

Thanks for any help!
 
Can you tell if you can lower the JLTV on it's wheels? (IT pretends to be a lowrider when being transported..) LOL They might not do that when the JLTV is a slung load? Okay maybe I need to watch the rest of the video? BRB
 
I just thought of this... Maybe my diorama should have men attaching the JLTV to the hooks in the Chinook Helicopter?

EDIT:: Are there some rigged action figures for 1/35 scale??

EDIT::EDIT::Found the perfect Diorama figures... Marines slinging up a JLTV for transport. I finally did a better search and found these

There are figures out there. You just got to find them. Maybe not exactly what shown on above pics.

Okay I don't need to bang my head against a brick wall trying to find figurines. My Paint for the Chinook just came in the mail today!!! YAY!!!
 
Nice! You can always display it like in the second photo without the figures.
I'm looking at the model at Joint Light Tactical Vehicle JLTV-GP because I am going to be displaying the camouflage pattern that I created for the military for the JLTV-GP. It's a two-part four-color pattern that I came up with based on the original camouflage. (But is way better...)

It looks like I love kit and Sabre kits are better than Ryfield kits? I can;t do tiny parts yet so maybe I should spend my money on the tool kit... but which tool kit whould I get? the one for railiroad models?

I bought the I LOVE KIT JLTV because it is camouflaged and I can work with it. The JLTV as a slung load is a bonus. This is a good paint guide right?

EDIT:: What happened to dark green?

I need help.... (dark Green?) dark green is not posted... How am I supposed to know what color to use? Just pick whatever color I want?

EDIT:: H78 might be what I need for this truck?

I just looked at the actual picture and decided tht it is too dark

I Timothy McCall do declare that I messed up with my model selection...

EDIT:: maybe not.... I'm not too worried about the Helicopter camouflage or how old it is and I misunderstood a post.

Here are my Nam pilots for my Nam helicopter...Kinda expensive but probably worth it. I just need something transporting the JLTV bringing a new JLTV Camouflage pattern..
Black Sheep TwoOneFour misunderstood my mission hopefully it's okay now.

Pilots that SHOULD work

EDIT:: I just need a helicopter to bring in the new Camouflage for the JLTV.

EDIT::: I found better pilots::: modern pilots from Amazon

Somehow My order for the pilots says it has been delivered but it isn't here and I can't find it in the "My order" page. I am fairly certain that I paid for it though. (I'm disabled due to bad memory. for instance..,. for some reason I shut off my internet a few months ago and then forgot I did that and the reason I shut it off.)
 
HA! I finally found American pilots that will probably work.

American helicopter Pilots

EDIT::: I had to cancel the order. THe picture says 1/48 scalesd pilots and the description says 1/35 scale.... go figure... there's a ton of these all over the web!
