Glad you like the idea Choppa, I want to try some new techniques that I've recently read about. Probably will not start it for a couple of weeks, I would also like to try and track down a couple of civies.

I like unique projects 🙂
I tried a few crashed models as a kid and I keep looking at my huey on the shelf as a potential donor, if I can find the right tree of course😉

Now that's a good idea with the cow Choppa, I might be even be able to go to a dollar shop and buy a set of farm animals and see what use they could be. Or there is also the option of going to this particular shop in Coffs that sells high quality animals that would work perfectly, thanks Mate.👍😄

what about a giant 1/35th zombie farmer ?
Ok ok I'm being silly now 😄

There is one crash scene I do fancy doing as a tribute to my dad as he crashed a Bell47 whilst crop spraying, the intake pipe collapsed and the engine stopped at 3 feet and 50knots, and when my old man pulled himself out of the wreckage with only a few cuts & bruises the farmer who he was working for came running over shouting -
"I told you to spray the field not bloody plough it !!"

True story 🙂

What a crack up of a story, I hope he still got paid. And lucky to walk away with only bumps and cuts.🙂

Choppa Nutta
Haha, dad getting paid was not the question on our minds at the time 🙂

I have a photo or two somewhere and the tail reg. plate with a section of the rotor which could all make for an interesting display etc. I have a couple of 1:35 Revell 47 kits all I need now is a fat angry farmer in 1:35th scale 😄

Amusingly the reg. was G-BENG which is halfway between bend & bang 😄

anyhow, I wonder what's the story behind the demise of Black 3 we see at rest in the grass ? 🙂

Michael Hickey
Yes it would be interesting to find out...
