This
is the nice small Academy OV-10A Bronco. With the Bronco there is only 1
problem; it is a real tail sitter. And you know what? There is almost no place
to put any weight. I stuffed up the nose with lead and put a big plate under the
cockpit. After finishing the model it was still sitting on its tail.
So when I
installed the engines I put a lot of weight in there and it finally helped.
While building the model I used mostly Humbrol paints.

The
aircraft I made is form the 20th TASS/504th TASG of the
USAF, it was stationed at Danang in 1969.
For painting the model I used a brush. Except for the upper wing, to get it
white I used my airbrush.
The
aircraft is armed with its usual 4 guns and next to that 2 rocket pods and 3 GP
bombs.
