Kamov Ka 50 "Hokum", 018, test aircraft Tashkent 1991.

February 9, 2017 · in Aviation · · 18 · 1.8K

, I modified the rotor head, replacing some parts to separate the two rotors, finished in MM enamels with I think Tamiya X22 and MM 30000 over kit decals.

  1. Cracking job, Allan...one of the better ones I've seen.

  2. Beautiful work !
    Imodeler is currently a good place for Kamov designs, nice paint job by the way.

  3. Looks great Allan ! I did this one myself and similarly modified the rotors.

  4. You've been into the rotor heads lately! Looks really nice. I haven't been able to bring myself to divert from my first love (fixed wing aircraft), but I've been tempted a time or two!

  5. Great job sir. One thing about helos though ,is if the prop stops you drop.

  6. Nice work again, Allan, that rotor head looks particularly tricky to get right.

  7. Thanks George, a little tricky, better than the kit version !

  8. Nice build Allan, quite an unusual subject as well.

  9. Really nice, Allan. I really like the detail of the rotor head. I'm grateful that when I was a tank commander I never had to face one of these in combat!
