UH100 Black Hawk Stealth

Modeling Subjects Science Fiction

First of all, I must say that the Italeri,
UH-60/MH-60 BLACK HAWK ‘night raid’ 1/48 scale kit, sucked big time. Maybe it was my bad luck but the fittings has one of the worst fittings I have ever experienced. Not only that, but the instructions was so bad. Thank goodness, I was not trying to duplicate any particular prototyp model, which would have been a disaster. At the end, things were so misaligned that I just had to improvised, to hide certain areas. It helped, but only to an extend. So forgive me, if certain areas do not look that they have a perfect fitting. But, that was the best I could do. The engines rotate, for take off and flight mode.

Anyways, here is kit-bashed, modified, with a little scratch building involved, which resulted in this 'UH100 Black Hawk Stealth design. Hope you like the results, regardless of the difficulties I have had trying to put this build together.

Another super cool build. I tilt-jet. I dig the finish and a bit bummed about the kit issues as I have one in the stash.

Maybe I was just unlucky. But I saw a similar model that someone else had built, and saw from the photos that he put up, he had the same issues.

Looks really cool! I can vision this vehicle in the post apocalyptic terminator world! Great job once again. Sorry to hear you had issues, but, from what I see, you overcame them very well.

Thank you. Overcame with improvision made to it. There was no way to completely overcome it.

Ohhhh, that’s another cool one!!!

And Bruce, yeah it does remind me of the Hunter-killers from the Terminator movies.
