It's been years since I've done a helio kit, let alone over 40 years since I did the vintage Revell Huey Gunship kit. (It was molded in green back then
)I fiddled around doing a little bit work on the cockpit and seats.

UH-1C Huey Gunship "Special Nose Art Edition"
Got a lil sidetracked resuming the Armored 1/4 ton 4x4 Truck when I was seduced by this kit.

Very cool subject Tom - I've never built a Huey, that's yet another type I need to get around too.

This has figures included (2 pilots, 1 gunner) and want to put them in. I hate painting figures and do a crappy job doing them. Anyone up to painting them for me?

Figure painting is great practice, Tom. Give it a go.
Make more models!

The only real hard part of figure painting is the faces. If you were nearby I’d gladly paint them for you. Vietnam era US figures are just a palette of olive greens and olive drabs, aside from some black and flesh areas.BlackSheep214 wrote: ↑Tue Nov 03, 2026 10:02 am This has figures included (2 pilots, 1 gunner) and want to put them in.
