*EDIT* Project is finished, pics on page 3
I think most of us thought of the same thing when we saw the World Peacekeeper 'Aerial Rocket Helicopter'. That is to turn it into a VIP transport. Well I finally got a chance to work on giving C.C. his ride. Basically this is just a repaint. The kit meets my needs as is. If I had a bit mroe time/talent I would add a collective or two.. But for something most folk will never it is good enough as is. What I started with(pic courtesy of IXZ72) Disassembled the chopper and applied the primer coat to the big pieces. Next up was the first couple basecoats. http://www.hisstank.com/forum/member...first-coat.jpg In between coats I worked on the detail parts. Bit of detail work done.

I'm rather proud of the instrument panel. There are just a few raised rings and dots. Given that I work in cockpits all day long I felt like sprucing it up a bit. Hopefully I gave the impression of a few various indicators and radios as found in a real chopper. Probably too much time spent on something noone will see, but I really dig it.
Once I was done it was time for re-assembly. I needed to get a razor to mask the door windows. Unlike the other windows the door windows are glued in. Unfortunatley 3 of the doors require another coat of paint, and I had run out of daylight. So what remains is to paint and reinstall the doors and then add some various decals from cobrastickers.com. Hopefully I can get to that tomorrow.
