this kit was so good, I made 2 of these aircraft and was just amazed at how well designed it was. never put a better fit model together than this.
Very nice looking AH-12 VIPER. Great designed helicopter. Neat paint job. 👍😁😎🇭🇲🧔🦘
Thanks mate :)
Another beautiful model.....a most enjoyable series with lots to see and to listen to. You have given insight into the pitfalls of this model which will be useful to other modelers willing to take on this product. I look forward to watching your upcoming FW 190 series and what's to follow.
Thanks Robert. Very kind of you :)
I restarted plastic modelling after 40 years. I tried italeri and other kits in 1/48. When I saw your clip I thought to change the brand and ordered exactly this kit, AH-1Z. Have to finish some others before I start with it , but really cannot await until I start with the first steps, like the cockpit and instruments! Great film, by the way 👍🏻
Thanks Michael. Good luck with the build :)
You are an example to all model makers!
thanks buddy :)

Wow! The model looks fantastic. Well done 👍

Nice work on the Viper my friend 🍻
Excellent! Very nice!
Thank you very much!
Awesome! 👍👏☺️
best job
Thanks buddy.
Fantastico!!!!!!!!
Nice job!! Could that cloudiness have been caused by glue vapors? One thing, I've never seen grey blades, just black. Also if you wanted an extra touch of realism, you could have painted a thin stripe of color on the blade grips( both main and tail rotor). Red, yellow, green and blue are normally used on 4-bladed systems to aid in track and balance.
i guess I'm quite randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to watch newly released tv shows online ?
@Lucian Jackson Flixportal =)
@Milo Hugo thank you, I signed up and it seems to work :) Appreciate it !
@Lucian Jackson Glad I could help =)
X2 on the grey blades. I'm a Marine helo mechanic. We only ever had black blades and the wires were bundled up in the avionics bays. Aside from those details, this has been an absolute beautiful build! Thanks!!
Lol i couldnt help but notice that the choppers captain is ranked as a LCPL (Lance Corporal); thats a junior enlisted rank of E-3. The only way a LCPL is getting near the helicopter is to clean it, or load munitions on it. Should have been a Captain (O-3) or higher, possibly even a 1st Leutenant (O-2). Not your fault at all, more the fault of the company; just figured i'd share a little fact.
A plane captain is in charge of the maintenance, much like a crew chief, and would be an enlisted Marine, certainly not an officer. Officers don't get their hands dirty on a helo!
Plane captains are who is responsible for the bird. Not the pilot, who would be the officer you're referring to. The Lcpl is accurate here. I'm an AVI mechanic with the skids.
Lovely build, a terrific job, may I ask, my kit included two resin crew figures and a piece of fine metal chain,
but no instructions for it's use. Have you come across this or can suggest it's use? Regards John.
I am new to airbrushing and I noticed that your airbrush is very fine. What nozzle size do you use?
So, I think I am using a .15 nozzle here. But having said that, you don't need a nozzle that fine, a .35 will do just as well. All you need is practice. What I am trying to say is that a minor variation in nozzle size can easily be overcome with practice. Hope that helps :) Good luck.
Hi. What brand of varnish did you used?
Thank you
So does the propeller move?
Any particular reason why you used black for the base coat?
Hey Larry, the use of a black base is a personal choice, the reason I do it is firstly it gives very nice natural shadows, if the second coat of paint is carefully applied. Also, I like the depth it adds to the subsequent layers of paint. Maybe it's all in my head...lol.
@@scalemodellingmadness4114 Makes sense, I'll try it on my next project. Always used some shade of gray, guess it is personal preference. Nice work.
Where can I get "Part #1 and #2 of this Series ???
Hey Tony...all the parts of the series are on the channel. Just go to scale modelling madness :)
Ojalá pueda entender mi idioma , muchas gracias y si puede enviarme un correo electrónico le enviaré las fotografías de como quedará mi modelo que espero este a la altura del tuyo
Hola mi amigo. Si bien no entiendo su idioma, pude usar el traductor de Google para leerlo. Mi correo electrónico es scalemodellingmadness@gmail.com. Envíe las fotos de su modelo. Te deseo suerte con la construcción. Mantente seguro y saludable :)
Good at painting, even if I don't like the smoke effect. But you have to hide the seams of the semifuselages: Joining marks are evident and this shows that it is a model so any realistic effect is useless
Indeed a great built which part of India you from, I am based in Delhi and I built too you can check out my Instagram page Nairrit Das
Hey Nairrit, I am actually from Delhi/Dehradun but after living in Mumbai for a few years, I have moved to Singapore. But it is always great to meet fellow modellers from India. We have a small but passionate community and I would suggest you look us up and join us. We are on FB, Indian Scale Modellers.
