Hey everyone.
Finally finished this lovely kit. All in all, went together without any problems at all. Sorry for the quality of the pics.
Quite happy with the finished product. All questions and comments welcome.
Enjoy! :thumb2:

Painted with Tamiya and Model Master Paints; Figure with Vallejo and Model Master
Weathered with Artist Oils and Vallejo Pigments
Figure is a 1/48 Vietnam set from Verlinden
Fuel drums are plaster cast from a quebec company (off ebay - can look into it, if people wish)
Sandbags are from Pegasus Hobby (great quality!)

Ground work is covered in a dirt/sand/PVA/H2O mixture and then lightly airbrushed with different sand tones.

Awesome, lots to look at, perfectly executed, the sandbags look very realistic as do the barrels, the chopper looks like it has been to war, a very nice build indeed
