IS IT WORTH THE EFFORT ? Full RIVET !! CH-46 SEA KNIGHT 1/48 Scale Helicopter Model Kit

[@imdoobie80]

As a Marine rifleman, when one of these aircraft or the CH-53E came came to pick us up, we knew we had a fun but hard mission ahead.

[@ugurkenel]

👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤟🏻

[@dekon70]

The rivets up'd this kit to a totally new level. Outstanding job!

[@ugurkenel]

Thank you very much !!

[@carlclink9993]

Great job on that Phrog. I was a 6112 , a CH 46 mechanic as well as a Crew Chief with over 1000 flight hours. I have four of those academy kits in my stash waiting to be built someday.

[@ugurkenel]

Many thanks! 👍🏻 It's a good thing you collected this model of Academy, they are no longer produced. It's very hard to find them now.

[@gapratt4955]

Love the rivets! A heads up from a USMC 6132 that spent plenty of time fixing them, those rotor blades are the composite type. Give away is the square attachments. Leading edge would be covered with rubber sheet. Easily duplicated with black tape.

[@ugurkenel]

Many thanks. I didnt know that. So metalic effects on leading edge of blades are not proper ? Good to learn it.

[@ModelNerd]

Wow, looks like it took the patience of a saint for that job. But definitely worth it - a fantastic final result!

[@ugurkenel]

Many thanks!! I asked myself many times, should I give up? 😉👍🏻👍🏻

[@tonyroberts4807]

[@PerisModels]

An excellent build as always Can I ask why are you using super glue rather than thin cement on most parts?

[@ugurkenel]

Thanks a lot! I have no much time to wait curing Thin cement. I use CA glue because it dries in couple of second and i continue to work. Time saver…

[@PerisModels]

@ugurkenel good point 👉

[@ugurkenel]

Cheers 🤟🏻😉

[@philstorey7766]

Love this build, just started subscribing to your channel. I have the same glass display cabinets that I can see in the background on your finished shots, does the sea knight fit in these or is it too big with the rotors?

[@ugurkenel]

Many thanks!! Yes it is exactly same size for this model. You just need to align rotor blades according to display case. Send me an email or contact me via instagram or facebook, i will send you a photo.

[@philstorey7766]

@@ugurkenel brilliant, I hoped it would fit by rotating the rotors as you say. Just need to find one for sale now!👍

[@ugurkenel]

Good luck 🤟🏻

[@eddybest100]

you don't want to spray the sidewalls of the glass parts in black? I would definitely do so, to avoid the grey look

[@ugurkenel]

You are right! I normally outline the glass windows frame with dark gray by brush painting. I was a bit rush to get the video ready for this month. So it was not perfect.

[@eddybest100]

👍😁
