1/48 Italeri Bell UH-1H Huey

This is the Italeri UH-1H upgraded with Fireball Modelworks Aircraft Survivability Equipment and decals.

I used a Cutting Edge (now Cobra Company) Fuel Bladder set. There was some scratchbuilding inside but it is pretty invisible now.  As far as accurate, I can't believe we don't have an accurate UH-1D/H/V in any scale.  What a shame.

Good job!

Hi Floyd,

you did a good job on this one. I like the different shades and panels, looks really messy.  Have had my own eyes set on the white Flat Iron Huey and intend to build it some day, some day... :)

 

Cheers,

Stellan

Hi Floyd, really nice job on the paint work and the weathering, what did you make the base from, the worn out grass looks really good.
