 | | New MOC: Mi-24 Hind-D SOV (Special Operations Variant) —Chris Klint
|
| | | As you can probably tell from the relatively austere photos, I'm not quite finished with this model; the tail profile and engine block still need some work, along with the mundane rifles and fanciful 30mm gunpod, but I've made enough progress that (...)

| | | | | That's quite an extensive backstory you've got there... —Bryce Rollins
|
| | | | | ...but it goes well with your well done Hind. I like how you incorporated the passenger carrying capacity of the Hind (a feature that I believe is rarely used in real life) to make an all purpose SOF Battlewagon. Also, your use of the 2x2 round tile (...) (22 years ago, 6-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| | | | | | Building in the passenger capacity was fairly easy; the passengers themselves were the real surprise. Hasn't anybody else used M-Tron backpack harnesses to give minifigs customizable carrying capacity? The Adventurers packs were a beginning, but I (...)

|
| | | | | Very nice, Chris! I've been toying with the idea of building a Hind for some time now, and hopefully will get around to it by the summer in time for Brickfest. I don't know about that five bladed propeller, I'm tempted to just make it a fourbladed (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

|
| | | | | | Magnus, You've certainly got a point about the main rotor...I'd originally fitted a four-blade model to my Hind too, back before I started going over the aircraft again for realism. It was a close call for me too, but after long consideration I took (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| | | | | (...) An incredible MOC, an incredible backstory. I like them both! A handful of questions: -How did you get the fifth blade on the rotor? -Is that a customized tile on the front of the rocket pod? -The canopies: Have you thought about placing (...)

| | | | | | Lindsay, The rotor blades were simple enough to build, actually: as I mentioned before, they're based on ten black plate-hinges from my old 8839 Technic Supply Ship. Essentially I folded five hinges into a near-closed shape like a V, arranged them (...) (22 years ago, 9-Apr-02, to lugnet.build.military)

| | | | | Updates to SOV Photos! —Chris Klint
|
| | | | I'm pleased to announce the completion of my Brickshelf uploads from this weekend's SOV photo shoot: (URL) sections are significantly expanded, and I've created two new folders: a Technical folder containing the first of quite a few more images (...)
