The Duke's Snakes in the Grass

These are two helicopters I got finished up today.

This first one is the 1/72 scale Hasegawa AH-1s Cobra. It was supposed to be done as a US Army bird but when I shot the OD over it I lost track of which was which. Oh well, they are both the same helicopter so it doesn't matter. I did this one as an Israeli Cobra:

This next one is the 1/72 scale Hobby Boss AH-1S Cobra and this one is done up as a US Army bird:

These aren't the best pics. I do need to re-shoot these. I'll try to get better ones tomorrow when I can figure out why my camera is acting up.

Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.

Thanks for the great replies guys! Most appreciated.

 

Gil, it was a tossup. The Hobby Boss kit was easy to assemble and had soft enough plastic to fit better. The Hasegawa kit was a bit tougher with a few more parts and more hard plastic. I do like the Hasegawa kit's detail better though; it seems a bit more refined. The Hobby Boss decals were far better though; Hasegawa's took forever to loosen up for application!

 

Bill, I'm on my way.... :helo_army17:
