John's HIND Assembly!

63 Comments

John puts together one of the HINDS from the Soviet set letting you see how they go together. It's certainly one of the favourite Choppers from the weekend.

It's the one we sprayed gold and turned into Lloyd's Premier Chopper!

Even if I never play a game of Team Yankee, the HIND looks like a nice model to build and paint. And I like the references I’ve seen with the blue underside and camouflage body.

That is one kit I shall certainly be looking at, looking at them up close and personal they look even bigger. The actual noise that those things make is really really big, so sneaking up valleys and around in mountainous terrain you certainly know they are coming. The Cobras also have such a distinct noise that it is possible to count roughly the amount involved.

John needs a raise for working while everyone else is getting to play!
