Here is : "Sandy". This chopper is used to provide ground support. But it's also the team mate of the Jolly Green Giant. The helicopters team with S.A.R. specialty. The nickname of "Sandy" is coming from this role.
It is armed with 2 .50 chain guns on the nose; it can carry 6 bombs, AGM or AAM. Like many helicopters or jets that have served during the '70 and '80 that have that kind of camo scheme, the paint near the reactor was always "burn" due to the heat of the reactor. That's why i have paint the rear of the chopper on aluminum colors before to put red, blue and burn colors on it. The pilot wear the latest unofficial camo develop specially for the fighters and helicopter pilot in the case if he's down. As you can see his helmet has the same colors. It is an evolution of the tiger stripes camo. As the Skystorm is call X-Wing like the famous Star Wars fighter i have found that funny to used a Luke Skywalker figure to make the X wing pilot. |

Nice job again, it's always nice to see those desert-themed customs you make. Oh, and is that the first non-ARAH figure you painted? Booh, stick to ARAH man! ;)
