Jack12477 Posted December 29, 2020 #1 Posted December 29, 2020 Got super bored with Constellation ship model, COVID isolation, et al, so I decided to take a break from ship modeling and break out a few plastic kits. This kit is the HH60-J US Coast Rescue chopper, however, I decided to paint it the Centennial colors as shown in USCG photos below. Sorry, did not take any step by step photos.
