Toby's Super Cobra. "FINISHED"

[TobyC]

Never done a chopper before so it'll be a learning curve all the way.
I'll be making the 1/72 Revell Bell AH1W Super Cobra that Splash kindly gave me
ETA:
To be correct Splash gave me another kit not this one but the thanks remain the same

[Stuart]

It's a really nice kit Toby, good choice! I look forward to seeing what you do with it!

Cheers

Stuart

A Cobra is a good kit to "cut your teeth on" Toby. Look forward to seeing it progress.

[Blueberryruby]

This is on my wish list... I look forward to watching it progress!

[Stuart]

Oi! Put that 109 down and do some work on this!

Sorry sir. I've been on holiday for a few days.
My mum forgot to send a note excusing me
Work has resumed today.

[TobyC]

Just to prove I have been doing some work after teacher had words with me



I've even remembered to add some weight to the forward area.

[splash]

White-tac and lead that's a good idea to stop the lead moving, I must try that.

Regards Splash

so I should think

[TobyC]

Cockpit almost done. Either my eyesight is going or this picture is slightly blurred

[TobyC]

A dry run with the canopy and engine and rotor cowling

[splash]

It's a great looking a/c

Regards Splash

[AndrewR]

Looks like it's fitting together nicely.

[TobyC]

Spraying starts tomorrow

[TobyC]

All gone a bit wrong.
I tried being clever and thought I'd spray in sections form the front to the rear.
This went well until I came across the winglets which I masked with maskoil. Never again.
So complete redo from the cockpit aft with the winglets coming off and painted separate from the fuselage
