1/72 Mi-28 'Havoc'

A failed job to produce a Soviet force for the '80s.  Chopper turned out to be too late and too big for what I wanted.

An excellent result,  nonetheless. I've got one of those, unbuilt, myself, and while I'll most likely do a Hind first, yours is quite inspiring to build it for what-ifs, even if it is outside of my preferred timeframe.

Missed it by that much!  :D

Still a great model.

What were you shooting for? A Hind-D?

First of all thanks for the kind comments folks.

The original idea was to use 1/72 scale for the planned force but this monster put an end to that.  The whole thing got shelved and it was some time later that I discovered 1:144 Hinds, doh!  I may yet go back to it using 10mm and 1:144 now I know I can get a Frogfoot in that scale as well.
