Euan : you must upload your picture to a photo hosting website like Photobucket or Picasa to show it to the rest of the modeling community

I'm no expert at all, but usually the "C:" refers to your own hard drive. I guess this is why the link doesnt't work

Here's the link to the page where I've found the picture :

That's a very interesting looking vehicle, and will be a very nice conversion project... but it will be quite pricey. Buying Trumpeter's helicopter kit just to use part of it's hull... I wish you luck with it!

Depending on what scale your looking at, if your going to convert a Mil Mi-8 onto a Gaz, you can find relatively cheap Mil Mi-8 kits (some might not be exactly Mi-8 but if your just looking for the fuselage, most cheap ones will do)



Kopro, KPM, Italeri all make some cheap 1/72 Mil Mi-8s Zvezda also do a nice kit but its more expensive :S, if your looking for 1/48 and above its a similar situation to the An-2, when only 1 or 2 model manufacturers make the kit, or it has insane amounts of detail, they charge the sky high prices :S

Sorry I can't be of more help
