Well done it will be a sinister looking war bird ! Magic Pickel !

I have been working on the Hind all week long and may get a chance to put some pics up this weekend. Next week I need to make fix the fender on the 251 mod and make the molds and get caught up on some past orders.

I have the main fuselage roughed in along with the tail boom and wing stubs.

She is a big beast

Tall and narrow.

I'm excited to see pictures!

ME TOO !!!!!

I need to work a half day today on my real job so pics may be delayed.

I have the back half of the turtle deck mounted and am working on the front. I also need to mounted the wing stubs and rear stabilizer.

Shapeways material is VERY BRITTEL . when I do make the main rotor blades I doubt if the plastic will take the wait of the blades and will snap off even during mock up pics .

I will address that when the time comes.

I just wish I had taken a few in process pics as I went along but focus was the main thing and I did not want to be distracted.

Jay was a life savor on this project . He shaved days or maybe even months off of the hands on build.

So far today marks 6- 1/2 days I have worked on this to make the fuse and other parts match up.

She is kinda acting like a tail dragger. I hope not but there are places to add weight if needed .

Wow, and there it is a Hind in the making. Too awesome for words.

That thing is seriously bad ass!! I'm definitely in for one if I can get a full build, and someone to paint it. That part of my brain is non-functional to put it lightly.

Holy moly, that is amazing. I have always had an interest in the Soviet War in Afghanistan, and this is a dream come true. I'll see if I can whip up some funds for this...

Dang Pickel, this is beyond belief! Well Done!!!!

Looking good, I forgot how big these bad boys are.

Thanks guys .

As far as full builds go they are always a pain.

But I do offer the service usually it is twice the price of the kit.

You pre sell guys ( if wanted ) I would add the price of the production run to your discount .

Still taking discounted pre-sale on this?

Yes I am !!

I'm putting the money together as we speak. I''m down for a pre-order. Looks great by the way.

Thanks tool !!

And BTW guys I do take partial payments and lay-aways !!!

Just got a message from Jay and dispite his work load on his real job he was able to get the landing gear finished .

So in about a week or so I will have them .

Then they will be sent out to my metal caster in the Mid West so he can start making copies in metal !!!

Good news! Glad to see this inching towards the finish line.
