OV10-A Bronco 1/48 Testors

[Guest]

I'm also finding some really strange little bits about this airframe as I research,how about a float version?

[Dave W]

Ah,proper modelling at last.Lots of Squadron green and bits of plastic card!.Coming on well Trey.

[Guest]

Thanks Dave!

I've managed to get the bulk of the office mods in place and a shot of primer

[Guest]

I've got the office about %90 wrapped up just some minor tweaks needed. I added some fiddly bits and wiring to the avionics shelf and set the seats in place. I went ahead with the kit supplied Pilot figure,why Testors felt the need to put one with an O2 mask in this kit is beyond me. Of course look at the rest of the kit and it should'nt really be a shocker huh? Enough of my griping heres the pics.

Seats are really nice resin ones from Verlinden

I also rescribed the pod

[Dave W]

Coming together nicely Trey. Those seats look well detailed.

[Vaughan]

Wow the detail Trey! Keep the photos coming.

Thanks Vaughan it was'nt as hateful as I thought it was going to be. Looking at pictures of the real wing not much really shows in the way of panel lines,thankfully it made it pretty straight forward and simple. I'm going to have to rethink the vortex generators on the control surfaces ,might be too difficult to get them thin and small enough to look right.

The wing fit is decent but will require some putty fore and aft to blend in the small gaps

Great work as always Trey, watching and learning. M

Great job on the rescribing trey, my most favourite job , after canopy masking ---NOT!!!!!!!!!!!! Really surprised the wing wasnt a bad fit, but i suspect thats all down to yourself ,not the kit! Keep it up matey , its a very valuable lesson for us all in perseverance and how to wrestle a pig and win !!LOL!! cheers tony
