Hello this is my AH-64A Apache. This is my first helicopter
I've built and it was an enjoyable build. The kit fit together very well and there was not a lot of filling and sanding required.
I used Eduard's photoetch for the cockpit and the main gun was not movable, so I
made it moveable which was quite easy to do. :)

I used Tamiya & Humbrol Paints and also Vallejo Varnishes & had to experiment to get the grey camo shades right,
I also used my usual weathering techniques (artist oils, washes) to get the light weathering effect
I was after.
