UH-1C Huey
LM1014

An advantage of larger fuselage models is that there is lesser concern over the models becoming overweight which allows the modeler to spend a lot of effort and time on scale detailing and less time being concerned that it will not lift off the ground.

When it comes to expert scale modeling, our featured UH-1C scale helicopter has been built by a master modelmaker and owner of Starwood Scale Models. Al Wert is well known in scale helicopter marketplace for his craftsmanship and creativity in adding details to his models. He has a wall of awards that acknowledges his dedication to his work over the years.

The purpose of our photo gallery is to inspire modelers by showing the type of detailing what is possible on a fuselage like the UH-1C. You will find details in the gallery that are not found in the fuselage as you would receive it and hence they have been scratch built. At the same time there are plently of available accessories that have been purchased from several hobby dealers. We have documented these whenever possible. Enjoy!
