Darby,
The pics might make them look big but they are true 1/100 scale helo's with 15 mm figures.

Those bridges look homemade. Are they, Ken? They sorta look similar in style to the one Tom had in his post about the shot up Citroen.

Dude, I did my Charlie's Point in 1/600, your 15mm looks way more impressive, that's a lot of work. I have 4 of the Aoshima UH-1s that I got from Jimmi, and have yet to build any mostly because of the shear number of parts...Darby wrote:The pics might make them look big but they are true 1/100 scale helo's with 15 mm figures.

B6, yes "home made" per se. They are all resin casts from a "home made" master. It was one of the last things I made when I was part owner of FlashPoint before the sale to Drew who sold it to Jimmy.
I do have a treasure trove of bits and pieces I made and cast up that never really made it to market.
These days I would just knock it up in a 3D modelling tool and 3D print it. The rough texture you can sometimes get from 3D printing would only enhance the look of pieces like that.

Thanks Ken. They look great!
Agreed. That would look good on a wooden bridge piece.
