Hey Guys, The next 2 Hind fuselages are ready for final paint . One will be the modern paint and the other Cold War clover scheme . The Afghan template took me 4 days to make. I went back to my original idea of using a rubber shower pan to make the templates This seems to be much easier than...

Looks pretty good !! Is it close to 1/18th scale ?

Nice paint job Preacher !!

Nice collection ! Thanks for sharing.

You guys are right , there is a lot of give and take when dealing with scale items. The Indy bike is actually closer to 1/16 scale but my side car is 1/18th. Making them work together was a challenge. Another challenge is making something that will be copied . You have to build something...

Looks good ! I made and kitted one years ago but the molds are shot now. I have had quite a few guys want one but this damn Hind project is holding me back. Here is a quicky full build that I did . No weathering brake handles on backwards ( the Indy's are anyway) No fender stifiners.

So far only 2. Another 6 more to go. i am trying to work on 2 at a time now. Hopefully I passed the learning curve and should be a little faster to get these 2 out. Hopefully. We shall see.

Thanks . Yes this livery is of an actual UN Hind . One of the hardest thigs was to get those red dot centered on the air intake filters. All of the marks on both Hinds were done with stencils . Lots of work but worth it .

Thank you Gunter Scout . This has been a long project as stated before each unit is taking over 200-250 to build. I am almost done with my next one. A UN version for Lee P. He was the first one to order a full build so many years ago.

The one picture is actually R/C

Great job. The turret looks great along with the paint jobs. The BH with the 4 bladed prop who makes that ? Did you customize the prop hub on a BBI or is that one of the Peace Keepers helos ?

Here I am. Feel free to e-mail me. mhiggins47@cox.net

Thanks Guys, I am happy to make one for you Psycho J If you proceed you will have waited the least in this 3 year old project. I sent out the Paint Master to CO . The shipping price was $115 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will absorb this price in the additional $650

The Hind project has not died it has just moved in different directions. The Afghany Paint Master is done using 19 different paint colors. I have sent messages to all the full build buyers and so far the continue vs payback is 50/50 . Here are a few picks of the Paint Master .

ll right Guys, It is time for a reality check. The past 2-12 years work for me has gone from bad to worse . The phone has not been ringing at all . The money form my 1/18th sales has been paying the bills augmented by me selling my pickelhaube collection. 3 weeks ago I hired on to a granite...

I thought it was funny to !! I have given it much thought and the clover leaf pattern is an iconic image of the cold war . So I will be making it. That will take another 3-4 days to make that template , so the cold war scheme will get bumped to 3rd place in order. So.. Afghan War Modern...

NSA You originally were green on gray modern. I can put you down for Afghan war. The one I am working on now is an Afghan.
