I took a punt on a resin Mi-8 Hip model as a transport hello for my Superpower Backed AK-47 army and, I have to say, I'm very impressed. The model is printed in tough plastic resin material, with no discernible lines or ridges to worry about, so cleaning up and assembly should be easy. Four magnets are included, two for the main rotor and another two for the flight stand, which I haven't included in the photos. It scales very well with Peter Pig figures and will look very cool when painted up. For £15 it's a bargain and I will definitely be ordering some more choppers for my other post-war projects. Excellent 👍
Welcome to my blog. I have upwards of 100 projects in various stages of incompletion or total abandonment, so you may well find something of interest if you rummage about a bit. I concentrate on solo air and naval wargaming but other 'skirmishy' things quite often pop up out of nowhere, only to disappear again after something else grabs my attention. I even finish the occasional project now and again!

Looks a great match. Should look good when it's finished. I see they do a SCUD launcher too, would be an impressive game objective!
ReplyDeleteNice find! Can you spin the rotors (slowly) due to the double magnet setup?
ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty good looking model, thanks for tharing this.
