AH-64A Apache, 1/72, Revell

Post by Stupot »

AH-64A Apache

Hi everyone,

This is Revell’s AH-64A Apache. I’ve tried to improve the kit by adding some extra detail here and there. These include the lights on the stub wings and the foot/hand holds. The weapons pylons have been replaced with scratch built ones. The missiles are from the kit but the rocket pods are from a Hasegawa weapons set.

The model was brush painted using Humbrol enamels and varnishes.

Thanks for looking. :)

Very nicely done, especially when its brushpainted so well.
