boatman's 1/72 HMS Tiger C20 build
- Thread starter boatman
- Start date
HI ALL well cant do that gunfire unit for a while as waiting for the spk to come an still a bit of confushion over that wiren dio so its back to that cheapo 50p helo seaking an as it came in a plastic bag i think i had two different kits parts as it was a terrible fit as thats why i dint show the build but i think i have made a silk purse out of a sow's ear as to me it dont look to bad in fact better than i hoped pics below an its a fictoinal chopper as the decals went a bit funny an some spit so had to use what i had an first shot with the main door open as it slid nicely in its runners 
an door closed
angle shots 
AN HERE a banna shot of Andy's the paint guys chopper that he gave up on an sent it to me which was very nice of him as i think it was heading to the bin an a questin for you paint guys can you spray piant matt paint over gloss as that what i want to do but have never had any need before but this half built one is gloss paint ? 
HI Rick cheers for that as i had vishions of it turning into a heap of cr*p but it took me a wk which was a quick build an not all the parts there but i think i suprised myself as the decals make it

Chopper's looking good Chris!
Oh and yes, if you want to change the colour you can spray matt on top of gloss.

well i cant Rick as the yelow colour was only RAF so i want to spray it matt light grey as got that colour in spray can an it will be in the hanger so it wont be seen muchChris, if you plan on keeping it yellow just hit it with flat clear coat and save yourself some work.

Always so much going on here. Glad you now understand all that electrical gubbins. Helicopter looks fine. You have every reason to be happy with how it turned out.
HI Jim thank you on the chopper an how it turned out as yes im pleased be glad when i can get the stern section up on the table to fit it on the flightdeck with the blue chopper an see how they look as they should fit on ok as the flight deck is 20inches long an Jim no i have not got the eletrics sorted yet as yes i know an understand 90% of it but its the led's gun flash thats confusein me as the resistors fitted to the led's in the gents dioagram are to me wrong but i'll have me m8 Richard have a look an see if he thinks the same then i will alter it to how i think it should be CHEERS FOR STOPPIN

AN HI Andy yes the kit was a terrible fit as i bought it at a car boot sale for 50p an all the bits were in a plastic bag no instrucs but had some so no problem but hardly anything fitted without a battle an was worst than the first blue chopper an who ever started the kit soon gave up but i dont like to let a little thing like a bad fittin kit beat me an took on the challenge of knockin it into shape an thank goodness it all came togeather ok in the end an yes im pleased at how it turned out an thank you for your nice comment Andy but still got two more to make but shant put much on them as they will be in the hanger bay bein worked on by the mainternece guys
ATB to you Sir
