Mil Mi-171 Hip: my attempt.
The ubiquitous Hip needs no introduction; the visiting card of Russian aviation technology, this choppers been in production for like 50+ years and in 3 generations. The latest generation Hips are built separately by Ulan Ude Aviation plant and Kazan, with most of them featuring 2 cabin doors instead of the original one, updated engines and avionics, and rear ramp and dolphin nose occasionally.
The Mi-171 is the Ulan Ude plant's export version of the Mi-8AMT which features hydraulically operated, inflight deployable rear ramp instead of the original clamshell cargo doors while retains the original glass-nose. The kit a.k.a the template has its roots in the GPM Mi-17 kit; I basically tried to simplify the kit to reduce the number of parts while improvising others. As is the case, there has been some hiccups during the build . you can also see two of my first-gen-Hip builds in the pic The dropbox links to the templates are here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/inqug6204d...meeBD.zip?dl=0 |

Cool models Samee, and that was that the possibility for the rest of the models from photographs, especially the Mi-24?

Thank you Pablito! The ones in the background are the 'experimental build' I did last year when i finished the template; includes a basic Mi-17 w/o rear clamshell doors, Mi-171 with scratch built dolphin nose, and the standard Mi-171.
And the Mi-24 is a 2-year old model, I drew the template by hand; it was done by using a 3-view drawing of the Mi-24 as reference. Coloring was by poster colors. I might be able to share the template, but its far from perfect and needs massive editing. |
