Md500 Defender Daybuild By Zac

[Brian da Basher]

Wow is that some fantastic work, Zac-o-matic! You are a real "helo-master". I love your camo paintwork, detailing and of course, those cool Kiwis!

You helo and armor guys amaze me.

Zac this little beuaty is truly one for the books! Excellent!

Thanks guys, you're all too kind!

Greg, my boss just crakced up at your first line!      BRILLIANT!!

Yes, only a daybuild, and was it fun? Um, how about no! This is the fourth (I think) 1:72 Hughes 500 I've built, and no it doesn't get easier. B777LR, I've built that one myself (or my Dad did), very nice kit. Can't wait for your pics!

Brian - SEA + Kiwis = instant winner! Always!

To all those commenting on the scale, this bird actually fits in the palm of your hand, rotors and all! In fact I'm pretty sure it'd fit in Lana's petite lil things too.

Jeff - go the Gaz!  I love the Gazelle, I DEMAND PICS!

Thanks for the comments re backstory. As you know I take great pride in my writing and being able to receive such praise makes it truly worthwhile. Thank you so much.

And, hopefully, God willing, this is *the* last 1:72 Hughes I EVER build! And no, I won't do any of yours for commision!

Thanks again for your kind words! And so many in such a short time! A great way to come back.

Cheers,

Zac

Nice little build!

God it's small would have hurt me eyes working on some thing so tiny.
