Making something a little different - Helicopters

[S4Simon]

Well I finished the Millennium Falcon, The Bismarck, and the Spitfire and thought I'd have a break from parts builds and move on into the area of Helicopters.  Never built one before, so I bought three kits, all larger scale as my eyes like to work on big things.  I also wanted to add lighting, motors and sound to the builds.  It was a learning process, so the first build just had lights, and the second I got more adventurous and added motors and integrated sound.  Anyway I've just finished two of the kits this month.  Here's some pics of the builds plus a couple of videos at the end (if you're really bored). 🙂

I’d call that a roaring success!  Fantastic job with the painting a weathering too.

They both look fantastic! I'm with Mark, great job on the weathering!
