Hello. Checking the fuselage's fit, it seems that there will be problems with the canopy union. There are also fit problems between the two halves of the fuselage. I have to make adjustments with the canopy, fuseage and some part of interiors.

Kit, Greg and Alec, thank you very much for your words!
Alec, I did paint tests to try to find the approximate metallic color, but after applying it in the model I realized that I have to correct some errors in the joints. In the attempt I broke one of the landing gear, although I do not think the repair is complicated.

Good job so far mate. I was also thinking build this one and now when I see your photos I think I really must build it 😄
How does the second one look? Zlin XII which is also in the box.

Thank you very much, Jiri. I encourage you to build yours 😉
It is a small and simple kit that should not take long to build.
Zlin Z-XII set is like the X-III, but includes resin parts for the engine and I think also for the propeller. I gave it to a friend, because I was only interested in the Zlin Z-XIII. You also have the option to build a Zlin Z-XIII two-seater 🙂

This kit should be simple and quick to build, but I did have a few minor drawbacks and it should have improved a few things when I got the chance.

Bart Goesaert, Holger Kranich and Ekki: Many thanks for your comments. This is the first model that I end after several years. Kit is tipical old Airfix. Very few details, raised panel lines, hard fit... Interior and some exterior parts are from scratch. Paint is from Gunze (propellers are painting from Lara's metal). Antennas wire are made from fishing line. I hope to make better the Academy's OV-10D kit next time.

Looks like, Łukasz 😛
During the washing process and effects it had measles 😄
They are small oil dots of different colors randomly placed that are diluted and dragged with a brush in the wind direction to create a bit of chromatic variety with that effect. It is difficult to see the result in the pics, but perhaps you can see it in photos 39, 42 and maybe 43 (not black grooves). This is my first time doing this. I did it to test.
Thanks for watching, likes and the feedback, mates.

Dean, Neuling and Guy: Many thanks for your comments. Your words are very appreciated. I think old kits should be given a chance, even if they are not as nice as a newer one.
Dean, I made the antennas with fishing line (I don't remember the thickness). Its base is made with a glob of cyanoacrylate. I should add comments to the photos, like I did in other albums.
I also should change the windshield for a handmade one according to its scale. I should also change the flat tail weights to make ones with a rounder volume. There are more things that should be improved, but I think that would be enough for now.

This is the only OV-10 model I've seen where the propeller blades are correctly painted in two different shades of aluminum. Everybody else misses this detail (or ignores it), including me. Bravo!

I should also add that I like the Euro-One paint scheme you used. I flew the OV-10A in Germany (and sometimes in Spain) back in the early 1980's. It always looks to me like the "proper" colors for the OV-10 🙂

Thanks again, David. I'm glad to hear that. It is a pleasure to read such lovely words from the hand of a pilot who flew this aircraft. Certainly I also think that the Euro-One is one of the most attractive schemes for the OV-10. Unfortunately there is little offer from the decal manufacturers for this scheme (at least in 1/72 scale). I also plan to build an OV-10D, but haven't decided on the color scheme yet. What air base were you in Spain?

Many thanks, Andy. This was one of my first kits as a kid. I assembled it unpainted, along with a Gnat, a Viggen and the Airfix F-5 (The Mig from Top Gun). Unos año después, en una etapa posterior del modelismo, comencé a pintar a pincel con el F-4C/D de Monogram.
@Łukasz, I trust that ICM has better fit, better detail, more accurate engine fronts and some really attractive paint schemes like this... but above all a windshield wiper according to the scale and some tail stabilizer's counterweights that are not flat 😄
Happy NY to all mates!
