rotor blades

im going to be soon partaking in making the hasegawa 1/48 Boeing AH-64D Apache Longbow and the Revell of Germany 1/72 Augusta Westland EH-101 Merlin.

anyway....

is it realistic to droop the main blades on scale models? if so by how much and what is the best way? i think i heard Barry say to hold it over some boiling water untill it droops on its own wait.

is that right? are their any other techniques that work well?

maybe this could be put into the tips section once we get a few nice ones that work. (hoepfully)
