Colourful Cobra
« on: December 03, 2021, 01:14:24 PM »
Here is the next project with a change from the greys and greens. Can't decide whether to do the army version or the NASA version yet.

Hi Chris,
Something bright and cheerful.
Is that an AZ model?

Hi Chris don't tell anybody but i was reading a book on helicopters and found a great photo of a Kamov 27PS rescue helo with a sharks mouth design - not sure if i would want to be picked out of the sea by that but it looked great.
Have not seen one in your SMALL amount of helos you have done with that design.

No - only a Polish Mi-14. Got a few Cobras and hueys with sharks mouths.

Not too colourful yet - Cobras tended to have predominantly black cockpits. Cockpit assembled into the fuselage. I should be able to move on a bit quicker now - the cockpit assembly had quite a few parts.

Right up my street... I have several of these kits squirreled away...

Here is the next project with a change from the greys and greens. Can't decide whether to do the army version or the NASA version yet.
