Two New Aircraft From the Duke

It sure feels good to finally finish something!

 

Here are my two latest aircraft models completed. This first one is the old 1/712 scale Heller model I bought for $20.00. It's a very basic build and severely lacking in details, but it does look good when done. I did this up as an aircraft in German service; the French version was an ESM/ECM type aircraft with antennas and bits and bobs everywhere that I would have broken off numerous times as I tried to finish the model so I opted for the 'cleaner' German variant:

This next model is a Hobby Boss 1/72 scale UH-1C that a friend of mine kept pushing at me. I didn't want to buy it originally, because I have two other UH1C versions built. When he finally dropped the price to $5.00, I went ahead and bought it. Assembly was a breeze; I was stunned at how well the main canopy fit together to the fuselage! This was a fast and fun kit to build and I'm glad I got it!

That's all the aircraft I have finished so far. Hopefully more will get done soon. I need to clear out some boxes!

 

Oh, I also finished up a couple anti-tank guns from ACE as well. Feel free to stop into the Armor Forum and check them out.

 

Thanks all for looking in, comments are welcome.
