Another outstanding creation. Thanks OleBoy, I will be ready to download when finished.

[OleBoy]

I appreciate the interest Tom. I'll forward updates to you directly via PM.

I've made great progress but, due to the lack of interest, I cease posting any further repaints for helicopters. I'm not going to waste my time.

[stovall]

That would be fine OleBoy but I think there is much more interest than you may think. Your paints are very unique and a must have for the AS350.

[OleBoy]

I do appreciate your interest in my work.
I decided to post in the developers forum. It seems more appropriate. http://aussiex.org/forum/index.php?/topic/11585-as350-vh-pih-wip/

Thanks for the link OleBoy, I will follow the progress there. Be sure to upload here when completed. Great work!

[OleBoy]

Alright, I have to be honest. SOH is my #1 place to reminisce. It just doesn't feel right posting my work elsewhere and not here too.
All ahead slow, and taking shape.

I'm currently working the head of the beast on the left side.

I Finished adding the small bits. Hatch latches, labeling (passenger doors, ground power, fuel designation), hinges, ELT, etc. Now it's taking shape.

Loving it OleBoy, can't wait to add her to the Redding, California skies.

you are seriously getting me close to buying this helo. I just wish my N number repaints were being done.

[OleBoy]

Thanks. I'm trying to pull in all the details I can. I've done even more since the last shots. Some I just can't do because of limitations in the way it's modeled or mapped.
I thought you had gotten it after the comments you left on my previous paint work. I don't fly these things worth beans, but I can paint'em with lots of patience. All I'll say is you're missing out.
Maybe if you actually have the thing someone will fill your requests.

Bye the way, I thought you do repaints? Then you could do the schemes you like.

[OleBoy]

I almost forgot about needing to get this finished.

A special "Thanks" goes out to Mike over at http://www.beckerhelicopters.com for taking the much needed photos that allowed me to create this one!! :salute:
I'll get this packaged up in the next couple days and put in the SOH library for all interested.

Quite a few areas that you had to line up exactly Well done old boy :salute:

[stovall]

Fantastic job OleBoy, been patiently? waiting for this one. Great job.

[OleBoy]

For sure, for sure. Have another beer aye!! :isadizzy:
It did take me a little while to do this one, I will say that. I remembered I needed to finish this one upon my FSX reinstall. So, no better time while it was fresh in my mind!!

As soon as Rami can get to it, it's in the SOH library now. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?action=jump&catid=3&id=6475
