1/48 Italeri OH-58A Kiowa

Gallery Article by Franz Galli on June 29 2009

 

Hi there!! This is my new helicopter for the gallery.  This is the Italeri OH-58A Kiowa 1/48. I built this model out of the box. It is a very nice model, with a few exceptions like some clear parts that don’t fit very well. It comes with decals for Spanish Air Force and United States Army. I decided to go for the U.S. Army version.

I used Model Master Olive Drab to paint the model.

I applied a light wash with some acrylic paints and sealed the model with Testors Dullcote.  Hope you like it.

Thank you!
