Hi Augie, if we're going to add surf-boards, my choice of decals will be no. 1 "Surfer Girl" of the Sharks Gun Platoon 174th AHC.

Hi, just found a story about the shark-mouth painting of the 174th.

Check it out here: 174ahc.org/174ahc6.htm

Photos of the sprues uploaded. I got a bit a feeling for the parts. Interesting - the kit obviously includes all parts to build a "Heavy Hog" except for the decals...

Now I'll do some research on the interior and painting...

Album info

Just to get started with that project - here are the instructions, decals and sprues of the kit! Honestly I'm a bit afraid of placing the shark-mouth decals, since I heard, that it might be a bit troublesome. Well, that's a challenge to take...

Behind the shark-mouth of the helicopter is a nice story, which I found here:
