Just wondered if I'm missing something… For my Operation Earnest Will project I need some 1:600 Sea Hawk helos but I can't see them in the Tumbling Dice catalogue; have I missed them? I can't believe the standard US ship borne helo is not there so I assume I have. If they are not, can anyone point me in the direction of another 1:600 manufacturer please? Cheers, Nick |

You might look at the UH-60 from Pico |

Major Mike is right, unless there is one on Shapeways, Oddzial Osmy is he only one available. They are sold in the UK by Fighting 5's. Faman |

At this scale just use the Pico Blackhawk, which is what I have done. With the right paint job you won't be able to tell the difference. |

Thanks for the info guys; that Picoarmor stuff looks pretty good. I can't find a UK supplier though – could someone post a link please? Can't find Fighting 5s on t'interweb. Cheers! Nick |

Be aware that despite nominally being the same scale. Pico Armor/Odzial Osmy is significantly smaller than Tumbling Dice. I have not bothered to try to figure out which is more correct. |

They are available from Fighting 15's, apologies for miss typing it above. fighting15sshop.co.uk While they are smaller than TD's models you can use both as long as you don't mix models of the same aircraft from both manufacturers. Fatman |

Sundance I have been told that O8 are a little too small and TD are, a bit more, too large. Personally I use both. Fatman |
