I slapped this together as a gag Christmas gift. Most of our Hueys have been down for tailbooms and we needed to fly Santa in for the squadron Christmas party.
It's an Italeri 1/48 UH-1N updated with Cobra
Company resin and miliputty intake, exhaust, and ALQ covers. The
patient Santa is a 1/48 Monogram Mi-24 Hind pilot with a mili-putty beard, hat,
and toy bag. This was my first
experience using mili-putty, made more difficult because I think my 2 year old
putty was dried out.
