1:48 Piasecki HUP-1 Retriever

Post by Cherrylock »

AMP did this kit with PE part and masks, 2 marking options for a Heli with and on without the tail wings

good detail, bad fit, not all informations you need are in instruction sheet (subassembly of exhaust, but no info were it will be placed...; NAVY only LH but nor RH??)

lot of work but in the end it is a cool HUP

You certainly got it all together despite the issues. Lot's of details - nice job.

Very nice finish Peter! It fought you, but you won. :shoutout:

Very nice! I have a few of the AMP helicopter kits unbuilt, they do look fiddley.

Did a fantastic job on this one!
March as one, Don't look back

Unleash hell! Do not repent! Warfare grants us no lament
Let your weapons slash and tear This is no place for fear
Hold the lines! Move as one! In unity our victory's won
Our shields will form a mighty wall
United we shall never fall
