discussion WAH64d Longbow Apache 1/48

[Guest]

It's true, I have so many unfinished work
But I always invert a few minute on the forum everyday!


And there is a reason...Laurie makes me think about it.... Just imagine one of those shelfs with some helicopters and Land Rover on a sandy base

I am the opposite, lots of time on here when I can and I have very little time to build!!!

Cock pit all finished.


It is a strange kit,. A real Jekyll and Hyde. Some bits I like some not. Horrible green sprue. A huge amount of cleaning up on the parts. Do not mind that so much but at times it is difficult to separate the real bits and parts to be cleaned of.


The instructions are awful They tell you which parts of the sprue are to be chopped from each part ie the little nodules. But then the important parts are missing. Just it is an era gone by. So I moan but actually quite enjoying building it.


Some of the detail is really good the seats and the figures do have very good detail work. In fact some of the best detail, not all, I have seen on a 1/48.


Although after a preliminary look at the two fuselage pieces I hope the enjoyment will have patience.


Laurie
