Amazing build, very nice

Lovely build. 'Bird Dog' made me think about the 80's movie Bat*21 with Gene Hackman and Danny Glover. A quick wiki check suggests that to be a Cessna O-2 Skymaster(?) Still, if you now added the Douglas ED-66E that Hackman baled out of, you'd have a lovely theme.
You may of course already have considered this, so ignore me but nice to reminisce about movies I loved from my childhood that got me into aircraft and models.

Great looking Birddog, Max. Very clean build. I still have the one I built 28 years ago hanging from the ceiling in my mancave. Not quite as nice as yours...

To Mirko: I used polishing compaund Tamiya for clear parts and appliied a finish coat Future liquid for both sides of canopy.

To Gary: Recently I was reviewing the Bat-21, as far as I remember, O-2 appeared there ... But 0-1 was one of the heroes another famous film "Air Amirica". I like this films!!!

Thanks all for yours kind words! You can see building of the model on the site: greenmats.club (use a site search)

Hi Max- If I recall in Bat*21 there's a good scene where a Skyraider arrives and does its thing! And Air America, Mel Gibson classic! What about Flight of the Intruder? A-6 Intruder - love it- what a little workhorse! All the best.
