Hello,

So...time to begin. I bought an old Italeri AH-64. I'll try do build combat helicopter simmilar to AH-56 Cheyenne out of Apache. It'll be based on this picture:


Stub wings from Su-25. Stabilizers from wings of Tornado, props'n'rotors from spare box.
I love Cheyenne so let's built another incarnation of this beast :)

Thanks :) Well, not all is thouht out. I'm still pondering over shape of engines. Apache has angular engines - I have to make'em sleeker, more aerodynamic. I have few ideas but I don't know if they're doable. It's easy to forget what lies in dark hole of spare box :) Maybe I'll use 1/32 RBS-15 missiles to make engines - they have cool intake :) Maybe I'll bought Italeri 1/48 Cobra to cut out engines? Everything is considered :)
