picooZ apache - new winter camo version

New version "D" - Winter woodland camouflage.

Took a bit of time to map the 2D plan back onto the 3D model; but it's worth it, now I can simply paint camo patterns directly onto the 3d model without having to worry whether the paint will fit between edges of different parts - that's automatically perfect now :) Man, gotta love these tools...

Enjoy building and flying this little living room gunship


EDIT: changed PDF to 300 dpi resolution

The winter camo looks awsome,
I have always wondered why nearly every ah-64 picture I see is in olive drab. I have seen an Israeli dessert scheme but everything else is boring olive drab. way to keep the apache looking sweet

I guess the olive drab has its anti IR purpose - anyways, at the time you can see an apache, it's already too late for you, isn't it?
On the other hand, camo paint is more helpful at times when those birds are grounded, rather than for actual combat situations... So I guess, since the Apache was firstly airborne in 1975, this olive paint might be kind of a vietnam jungle remains - who would've thought the next opponent would be sons of the desert those days...

Alrite, as I was just replacing those jpg downloads of the other paint schemes, I also changed this PDF to 300 dpi resolution. Only the best for you guys
