AH-64 Longbow Apache Helicopter

Could it be? :D

Yeah I hope its ok to post this in here, since its for "Show" :) and not for Racing. Its a kit that I picked up a while ago, and decided to finally give it a whirl. I will never buy kits on ebay again, since this one turned out to have been started a little. They basicly glued the together the wings, which I had to take apart since they weren't straight. *sigh*. Anyways, here are the parts layed out.

While I finish my 1963 Corvette, Im basicly just preping everything for completion, since there is ALOT of prep work.

Wow, if i didn't know better i'd think that was a helicopter! Very radical car styling that is!
And the idea of it having some sort of propellor; turn it the different way and you have some HUGE downforce..that would counter the bad cornering due to it having only three wheels i guess.
So what are you adding? 18's, interior flocking?

PS: IMHO those side-pipes look a bit too big, maybe a fujimi replacement would help?

Awsome dude. I say we need another section for the modelers...You know..MISC. Planes, trains, boats, gundam, houses.

Yeah another section would be nice, until then, I guess this is the section to use?

Haha, very funny :tongue:

Sorry for the sarcasm, but i just couldn't resist..
So is it the huge revell one? (1:32 or 35 or something)
And maybe this isn't the right place to post this project, with this site being automotive and all. I don't mind, but I know others will, that's all.

cool, reminds me of the old Hind D, ive got one lying around, maybe i'll have to post it on here once its finished

Its actually Testors model I think, and its not that big, Im not sure exacty of the scale, Ill check when I go back downstairs.

I did one of those...MANY years ago....it got broken and thrown away in one of my many moves over the years

looks cool.

that reminds me of this sweet 1/35 blackhawk at my LHS. I've wanted it for 3 years to sit next to my 1/35 tanks, but i just don't have the skill to make it look right. *Sigh* maybe i'll practice on sme other helos.

nice work and this qualifies as a vehicle!

Before I opened it I expected this was going to be a completed thread. One or two of them on non-automotive subjects is fine from time to time. Dunno about a progress thred! :lol:

There are dozens for excelent aviation modelling sites and forums out there so I'm told. You might get more assistance and feedback on one of those.

Yeah but Im not part of those, and am not really interested in joining another forum :). Plus I haven't found anybody more talented then the people on AF.
