wow such detail. as a kid, I would always have finger prints on my painted parts...and no putty...but it was fun just the same. Oh, I was a medic in Nam, worked in the Operating Room...choppers were cool.
I built this kit a long time ago. I pretty much tossed the cockpit and scratch built a new one and scratch built the turbine. It was a great kit for the time. My kit was very old when I got it and the plastic was very brittle. The landing skids broke so many times I tossed them and scratch built some skids out of brass rod. I was Air Assault Army and donated it to USAACE at FT Rucker.
Thanks. I'm gonna try installing my windows like you did with the white tack, but I suggest you invest in a tube of clear parts cement for window glazing. It dries clear and doesn't fog the clear plastic. Otherwise, I loved your scratchbuilt enhancements and was inspired by your build.
Thanks. I have subsequently started using Testors clear cement on my other models and it is so much better. I have tried the clear PVA glue, regular thin cement and superglue. The clear cement glue is so much better!
Unless you've coated the clear parts first, stay away from superglue which can fog the plastic even with just the ACC fumes. You've mentioned other choices but another is clear acrylic paint. It won't craze the plastic and can be scraped off with a toothpick if you don't get it right the first time. Lovely build!!

Great build. I needed this video last year.😁 I built the same kit. I’m no good with weathering so my Huey looks like it just rolled off the assembly line at Bell. I’ve never seen the trick to use putty to put windows in place before. Thanks
One issue with this particular version of the Huey: the only units that flew a UH-1 D or H model gunship were the Royal Australian Air Force (RAAF). Google RAAF Bushrangers for more info. I flew as a Crew Chief / Door Gunner on a UH-1H with the 114th AHC "Knights" out of Vinh Long RVN in '69-'70. The Aussies were a tough bunch and did wondrous field mods of the H-model.
funny they had all those holes in the lower floor which means there was a Slick version around in the past. Even though the Helicopter on the Box Art is a Charlie model gunship. which interestingly enough was also available in 1/32 by Revell. I have this kit and was looking at using the CMK seat set for the Dragon kit in this kit just to have seats in it. Scratch building the armor plates for the sides and the back of the seat is pretty easy to do the only part that would be slightly challenging would be making the pull out armor plate that slides out to cover the pilot and co-pilot door areas of the helicopter.
Thank you so much man. My grandpa lost the instructions in his house and gave it to me because he is completely paralyzed in his left side of his body now and cant really do anything anymore
Jordan, you're a good man to help your grandfather. I've been fighting cancer for 15 years and have faced "a few" (lol) difficulties. You have no idea how much you help your grandpa, even if it seems like "just a little thing" to you. If he's like me (and most others), one of the hardest parts is having to admit you need the help. But to have a loving family member like you there to provide the assistance makes it easier than having a stranger provide the same thing. You first have to accept the stranger, then accept their help. And to all you dedicated, hardworking and unselfish help-providers, PLEASE understand this is NOT an insult to or about you! Without your help many of us would be absolutely lost. It is just part of the process. So Jordan, please allow me to say a heartfelt 'Thank You' from all of us that need help from time to time - your contribution just cannot be measured - and sadly is undervalued way too many times. Sorry to change gears from modeling, but you (and people like you) NEED to know how much you are valued and loved by your family - even if we forget to say the words 'thank you'. I hope your model turns out great, but no matter what, Grandpa will appreciate it! Been there, done that, got the scars and missing body parts... and still fighting, thanks to my family which I owe so much to. Thom, a Professional Cancer Butt-Kicker!
Great presentation! I've been wanting this kit for awhile. I went into H.L. one day and boom there it was. I'll be referencing this video often. I really like the weathered look too.
Outstanding work. Just FYI for historical reference, the UH-1D flown by "Ancient Serpent Six" (Maj. Bruce Crandall) on his M.O.H. mission was flown as a slick.
Absolutely correct. "D" and "H" models were slicks. "B" "C" and "M" models were used as gunships. In addition the model shows no door gun mounts or seats for few chief and gunner. It also doesn't have the armoured seats for the pilot and co-pilot which were standard after about mid 1966. Some colors are off also, but I'm being picky as I was a crew chief on a "Charlie" model gunship in 1966-67.
@@dropshotdougie no it’s a old kit, revell use the same ejection mold they use from when they first produce it from back in the days you have to make it work, all five of my kits that I build the fuselage was warp at the tail. I just dipped it in boiling water to soften the plastic so I can form it straight. My only issue is that I wish revell correct those door hinges where the pilots sit that makes the kit look unrealistic, I always cut them off and use a little putty to fill the holes.
Thats exactly what I do to install clear parts, except I use blue tac and a cocktail stick. Do you clean the plastic before spraying, I noticed some fish eyeing when you were applying primer in some areas, usually caused by residual mold release lubricant. Not a critisism, just an observation, great build, and you gave me some good ideas 👍.
I actually did not clean it and I know that's why I got fisheyes. Sometimes its from water as well to flush out my airbrush. I don't usually want to wait for it to dry if I wash it... lol
And to make matters worse that is not a "UH-1D" Its an "H" model... Pitot tube above the cockpit on H models... D model pitot tubes on the nose in front of the pilot... Nice looking model!
I spent 1978 all the way through 1990 in Army Aviation, Air Cavalry, as a Phase Maintenance NCO. I've worked on Hueys, Chinooks, Cobras, Kiowas, and Skycranes. No one in the Army calls a helicopter a chopper. If they did, extra duty would land. It's insulting to the helicopter.
I got news for ya - we did. Called them birds, choppers and helicopters. 1st Infantry Division, 1st Aviation Battalion, the Longhorns. Vietnam war. I was a door gunner on a UH-1D slick. 1966-1968. Perhaps each outfit and each generation has its own way of doing things and saying things.
Really amazing results. It's a shame the model was not of a little bit better quality, (glass fitment and doors) and not so much puddy work needed. You have great skills and this turned out fantastic, especially with the extra custom decals parts and fantastic painting. I am curious how many hours you have in it and if you would sell it or build another like it?
Thanks for watching. I have no idea how many hours it took... I often work on multiple models at a time. The fit wasn't great and took a lot of fine tuning. I don't sell my models but maybe one day when I run out of display space :)
Great work! I'm working on this currently, way too much mold line sanding, straightening and constant checking fit of pieces. I have not given up on it yet.
Good representation. I like how you added the firewalls and seat springs. Almost makes me think you were a crew chief like me. I wish they had a better, more detailed model available. The hell hole on this bird is just wrong and really the H model ceased being a gunship almost immediately with the advent of the Cobra. A better representation would include crew seats and air 60's. But I love the work you put in on this one. I actually have a photograph of the last Huey on Ft. Campbell mothballed, taken by me after the Iraq War. Sure does bring back memories.
Looks amazing. I'm actually building.that very same model right now. Searched for tips on painting and yours was the first one that came up. Tha ks for sharing
Yeah do not add clear parts with super glue. Super glue crazes clear plastic, so does the regular thin cement. You can even see it in the final result. Use glue for clear parts or something. Tamiya multipurpose cement clear is great.
I got this kit and I couldn’t get one of the rotor blades to stay and I had gotten so mad at it that I just melted parts of the sprew to it to get it to somewhat hold. But other than that it’s an ok kit in my opinion (I know I’m a bit late on the comment section)
I have this but the propellers keep breaking off and i just gave up. It’s finished but i feel that it was too complicated to put together like pieces wouldn’t correctly go with each other (maybe this is because this is only my 3rd build) anyways loved the build keep on doing it
I have built 4 of these kits over the past 45 years. The fit and flash are terrible. I recently bought another one a few weeks ago and with updated tools and putty and such look forward to the build. The only problem I have with the kit is, the B and C versions were gunship, the D and H were slicks and dust off choppers.
For larger areas of paint I use a 0.5mm otherwise I use a 0.3mm needle. I do also thin almost all the paint with Vallejo Airbrush Thinner so it doesn’t get blocked. I also have to clean the brush regularly.
@@MDScaleModels Thank you. Watching you video inspired me to have a go at weathering. Previously I had always built my models as if they had just come off the production line. I bought an airbrush and a Revell Huey and followed the steps of your video. I’m absolutely stunned at how well it came out and how real it looks. It’s transformed modelling for me after many many years of building. Thank you so much
You can use any decal setting solution. It helps to soften the decal to fit the shape of the model. I use a mixture of Tamiya, Testors and Model Master. All acrylics. I thin them down a little for airbrushing.
Unfortunately, CCR music is copyrighted but that is a great song choice. If you look at the video a couple of times you will be able to see how I did parts of the chopper.
Remote control helicopters with a full cyclic/collective head are a lot harder to control that fixed wing aircraft. You are controlling cyclic pitch, collective pitch, rotor speed, and yaw all at once and very difficult to learn.

My own model building has improved so much from watching other people’s builds and seeing their techniques. Something you can’t get from just seeing a photo.
wow such detail. as a kid, I would always have finger prints on my painted parts...and no putty...but it was fun just the same. Oh, I was a medic in Nam, worked in the Operating Room...choppers were cool.

I built this kit too! I built both the gunship as well as the standard unarmed transport Huey. Love them both. Oh, the good ‘ole days of modeling!
I've built five of these over the years, three gunships, and two slicks.
Killer work! I had a helluva time with this kit. No glass, no decals. Alot prep and putty was needed.

Ruined by the white smudges (glue?) along the edges of most of the windows. Sad.
yes, I've started using a different glue. I tried the extra thin, CA glue and Testors Clear Glue...
I don't know but the front especially the nose of this model looks kind of out of proportion. Revell screwed up this one.
The real Huey windshields are more angled on the sides… they drop down more.
They did mess it up
this guy builds the models that they put on the back of the box to make you feel like you did a shit job at building it
My own model building has improved so much from watching other people’s builds and seeing their techniques. Something you can’t get from just seeing a photo.
yea i was sitting on my couch and was like, hot damn this dude is going above and beyond for this build
