After few weeks break from the work bench I went to my LHS and found some of the big Academy Helo kits on sale. I picked up this 1/35 Huey gunship and the Blackhawk gunship for a good price. Even though I'm busy a lot with work I'm still trying to find some time for modeling and improving my skills. I really like working in the bigger scale and so I will be keeping an eye out for sales on 1/32 scale planes.
Looks like this kit is going to be a lot better than the 1/48 B-25. After doing some test fitting the seams are going to be easier to deal with.
Still a lot to do yet before I can button up the fuselage halves but just taking my time and enjoying the build. Heck I even scratch built some comm cords, I think they look pretty convincing. I had to fix the control sticks to with paper clips since I snapped both of them trying to insert them in their holes in the floor. Next up to work on will the IP and the weapons sighting system.
