UH-1 D "Huey" Completed

Post by Hawkmoon »

Calling this one done. My first KittyHawk kit and it went together well the only thing I did find that tabs sometimes needed to be thinned to fit into a couple of holes would I build another kit from KittyHawk the answer is yes.

Real good! The glass, in particular, is REALLY convincing.

    :cheers2: Thanks for looking in everyone and you comments as for the glass Kittyhawk now supply there clear parts in a protective card box. All I did was remove them from the sprue and fix in place on the model. They were then covered with Tamiya Masking tape and this tape was removed after the painting/weathering process was finished. The last colour applied was the Tamiya clear green on the upper glass over the pilots seats. :cheers2:
