Finish Stuff Friday!
Finally wrappedup this Italeri 1/48 Huey. It didn't really take too long to build, it had just sat on my wishlist for a couple of years. I'm not really a helicopter guy, but Huey is THE icon of the Vietnam era. This builds more like an armor model than an airplane kit. I guess that's why I keep seeing it in 1/35th scale. Fun little build. One half of my fuselage was warped, so it made it tough to fit all together. There is a resulting gap under the windscreen that I just have to live with. As for displaying it, the build is small like a truck, but really long like an F-104.
