Nic C.D. Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Dear all, Me and my buddy François have been busy the past couple of weeks to build Kitty Hawk's OV-10D Bronco. A very nice kit indeed! Here are a couple of photos of the end-result: On TMN, there's a step-by-step construction of it. http://www.themodellingnews.com/2015/03/big-buckin-bronco-built-up-kittyhawks.html#more Thanks for watching everyone!

RNoAF Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 And how was the decal quality? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic C.D. Posted March 7, 2015 Author Share Posted March 7, 2015 The decals are extremely thin. They work very nicely, but are fragile, so care has to be taken when you put them on the kit. It's a very impressive kit. Not the easiest one, but I've had a lot of fun with it! Nic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out2gtcha Posted March 7, 2015 Share Posted March 7, 2015 Well done!!! Its a wonderful kit, of which I found the fit excellent on both the OV-10D and the OV-10A both. There are some tricky spots in construction, but the decals were my biggest hangup.. If your not careful with them, as pointed out the will rip, and/or fold over on themselves. With all of the AM love about to come out for the OV-10s, the possibilities are endless. Great looking model! Harold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic C.D. Posted March 9, 2015 Author Share Posted March 9, 2015 Thanks everyone! It sure is a great kit if you like cockpit detail. Every little thing you paint or add to it can be seen in the finished kit. Here are a couple more photos: A close-up of the engine: and one more: Thanks for watching !

Zero77 Posted March 9, 2015 Share Posted March 9, 2015 Very nicely done model and cockpit ! The scratchbuild is very good (except that i find the rivets on the seats a bit oversized) and bring a very realistic feeling of a busy cockpit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
