Hi Guys.
I've added a few more details. I feel like I am eating an elephant. I have now identified no fewer than 6 variations of side doors on these birds. Doors and side windows are now attached, as are a bunch of the aerials. Still to go is the interior, cabin windows, jetpipe, weathering and glossing and revise the overall shape shading and then I think I'll call it quits on this one.

Just keep chewing, chewing, chewing ...

Hail to the Huey Master.... SHE LOOKS AWESOME !!

... and here we are pretty much finished. I never seem to able to call anything completely finished. I just know I've missed something, somewhere!

I think I'll do a nice matt RAAF one next.

Yellows and oranges are a pain to shade. One tip I found (by Caruana I think) was to shade most colours towards black but orange/yellow towards red (reddish grey, or greyish red, or something).

I make a selection where the yellow is, and turn up the red level in the RGB thingie 1/4 of the way up. (What I just wrote is probably hopelessly unclear, but I hope not . if that is the case, just shout and I'll detail)

Your Huey is very good though, but the shading does look a bit dirty.

Thanks, Gamary.
I have been toying with the idea. I might see what I can do with adjustment layers so I am not upsetting the shading for other schemes.

Well Grubby, can't wait to test this birdy, although I prefer camo to a high vis scheme.....

Hi Guys,

I've woken up the Huey master file for another round of choppers. I want to get some RAAF ones done this time too.

This particular one is used locally for lifting and firefighting work.

It's not finished yet. I still have to add the snorkel end and take another look at the glasswork.

Grubby.
