V-22 Osprey COMPLETE (a while ago...)

These birds fly around my house every day out of Miramar MCAS - cool bird. So I decided to build one

Pit done - I had to adjust the bulkhead when I put it it the fuselage

A bit of a Flory wash on the deck

So much seam work to do…

She’s a big bird!

Nice start! Are you gonna leave the ramp down to show off the interior?

If you think it is big now, just wait till you get the props on. Mine is well over a foot and a half wide with them.

I have this kit in the stash, for a while now that I think about it, lol. I’ll be following along!

Can this kit be built with those big rotors folded? I looked at the instructions on Scalemates but the instructions don’t indicate the rotors folding.

There is a AM kit to fold the rotars. Mine will be a huge biatch…lol

Ya ramp down. The interior is really lacking but so be it.

Is this the Italeri kit? If so, it builds into a nice bird, with out TOO many problems…

Yes it’s the Italeri kit. Nice job. I remember seeing your build a while back. Great idea.

Man I forgot to close out this thread. I was keeping track in the VTOL group build.

Anyhow, here’s how she wrapped up - check out Modelcrazy’s VTOL group build thread here for the rest of the build… my bad.
