Yikes! Been way to long since I’ve updated this post. I ended up taking a LONG vacation (10 weeks) so was busy traveling and doing a lot of camping.
To get everyone up to speed, i pretty much needed to wrap this up as Cliff was hoping to get this back.
Last week Cliff and I got together and airbrushed a nice camouflage pattern on the Tiger. Personally think it turned out GREAT!
Will try and get some pictures next week as both he and I are going to be out again this week.
I have the next big project on the table… The AH-64 Apache (60 Size) Short Kit. I first have a ton of homework to do to plan this one out as it’s a short kit. Will start another thread soon on this build. Promise to have some pictures of the finished Tiger early next week

Dr. Evil, Dalton? I don't think i know him. Still pretty new to this board.
I wanted something pretty challenging for my next project, so asked Cliff what he had and this was his suggestion.
(There's a little bit of insane in all of us. I was at the end of the line when they were handing this stuff out so got all that was left over which was alot!)

LOL!!! That was too funny!
I wish I could attend but just not going to find the time.
I don't think there is anyway to get the Apache close to being done by that time. Are you going? Sounds like it's going to be great. You taking pictures? Posting? Thanks

OK guys here are some pictures of the final paint scheme. Cliff and I were able to give it a camouflage coat before i headed out if state. I wasn't able to help Cliff with the final touch ups and have to say he did a pretty amazing job with finishing it. Cliff did a nice job on painting the landing gear and wheel hubs. Cliff also painted the blades. Nice! Check out the inlet screens and scale rotor hub. So guess this wraps up this build. Hope it was helpful. Looking forward to another build with the .60 size AH-64D Apache from RCAerodyne. Be on the lookout for this coming soon......
