Here are some pictures of my contemporary project. It took about 200 hours to built this ambitious kit. The kit itself was horrible, in picture 11 you can see the parts I used...the rest was taken from an old Monogram Mil Mi-24 (control sticks, flight crew seats, tail rotor, engine and oil cooler intake and filter) and made by myself, including the entire interior, main rotorhead, main gear mounting, windows, front glazing, doppler and all other sensors.

To built this kit was very, very great fun. At first I had to do a lot of research. I found a very detailed plan on following websites: 

• http://www.airwar.ru/other/draw.html for the plans.

• http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww3/v/40 for the paint schemes.

Enjoy it.
