I know, I know, Everybody and their mother has done this. I tried to make mine look a little more 1984 shiny, kid friendly, toy-like. Left some of the parts black, and just painted the main body green. A bright green. I didn't want to go with a flat olive drab like all the others I saw. I was thinking more of the green plastic the Skyhawk and Vamp are molded in. Went over the whole thing in Gloss and Dullcote to give it a smooth satiny finish.
Unfortunately...Up close in some of these pics I can see where I didn't get enough paint into all the nooks and crannies. It's hard to tell in real life just looking at it, but the camera exposes all. That's what I get for painting at night with one measely energy saver yard light for illumination. |

Crap, looking at the pictures, it looks like it's more about Flint and Lady Jaye, than the chopper.

Thanks!! I got it on sale for 19.99. When I went back the next weekend after getting paid they were all of course back up to the normal 29 bucks. I still need to go back and get another to make the Sonic Fighter's Desert Apache. All nice, clean beige.

your Flagg looks like mine; everytime a jet lands, it kills 20+ passengers & crewmen.
Just what are those mo-fo's doing hanging out on the deck, anyway? Back to work lazy bones.
