Re: OT's Hoplite
As it would appear that you and Splash are very close to finishing OT and as I've mentioned in Splash's thread, there could be a bit of leeway on the finish of the GB to accommodate your builds. Obviously we're not talking an additional week here, but say until the end of the weekend before I ask JRatz to wrap it up.

Re: OT's Hoplite
Nice to see you plodding on with this one OT, it looks like the Russian Helicopters have put up a real fight to the end in this GB.

Re: OT's Hoplite
Great stuff OT. The GB has been extended until this coming Sunday (2nd December), I'll say until midnight but hopefully you'll get her finished before then

Re: OT's Hoplite ***Finished***
Sorry about the picture quality, just snapped this on my mobile phone. Here she is:
I may add a few aerials & dirty up the engines but for now this is it.
I will try to get some better shots with my camera later
Just realised I have not put the tail rotor on.

Ugly little brute, but I do like those 'sand and spinach' colour schemes. Well done.

Re: OT's Hoplite ***Finished***
Yes, well done on completing OT and we won't let a little thing like the tail rotor get in the way of the celebrations
