Very interesting Subject! Count me in 👍

Cuajete
Thank you, Daniel! 🙂

Daniel Klink
Great interior Work already cuajete .. Looks very good 👍

Henry
There is a point in building a kit and POW!!it comes to life. Very enjoyable build. You were saying last time about lack of time?? 🙂

Cuajete
Many thanks, mates!
Henry, I hope to resume building soon. I hope I have some time to continue 🙂

Alec K
Looking great 👍

Cuajete
Thank you, Alec 🙂

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.

Henry
I have heard from others that this is so. What needs to be done?

Alexandros Marinos
Fitting issues with canopies... The worst thing I think.. Nice job indeed

Henry
Oh my goodness!

Cuajete
A few pics uploaded.

Bernhard Pethe


Interesting plane 👍, my colleague has also built times. ffmc.de/modelle/axel..iii/af_zlinxiii.html

Cuajete
Many thanks, Bernhard.
Fantastic result from your colleague! I do not think I can do mine as well as their.

Bernhard Pethe
Take care, you can do that! 🙂

Gordon Sørensen
I really like inter-war aircraft, and this is a great looking aircraft. Nice work so far, Cuajete!

Cuajete
Many thanks, mates!

Cuajete
New pics updated.

Henry
Very nice work!

Cuajete
Thank you, Henry! 🙂

Dmitriy Andreeshchev
Wow, such an exquisite little beauty, my friend! Can't wait to see it finished!

Cuajete
Many thanks, Dmitriy! I will try do all I can 🙂

Kit Kabinet
Neat! Looking very promising!

Greg Baker
Oh, now that's something interesting and different. Looking good so far!

Alec K
I was wondering what happened to this project...

Cuajete
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.

Alec K
Good luck with the fix. The metal finish looks great 👍

Cuajete
Many thanks, Alec 👍

Jiri Vybihal
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.

Cuajete
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 🙂

You can see a review of the box here:

Stephan Ryll
Looking very nice 👍

Cuajete
Thanks a lot, Stephan 🙂

Cuajete
Returning to the project to finish it.

Greg Baker
Oh, it's going to be a grand finale! Can't wait! Except for the masking, it looks practically finished!

Alec K
Nice! I was wondering what happened to this. Looks excellent 👍

Zsolt Czegle
Great work!

Daniel Klink
Very nice progress Cuajete! Cool color and excllent paintwork 👍

Finished model.

Cuajete
Thank you very much, Greg, Alec, Zsolt, Daniel and Andy 🙂

Łukasz Gliński
Fabulous! 👍

Olivier
Ah... The Thirties such an exciting period. Beautiful rendition of this plane !

Greg Baker
A real beauty indeed. That baby looks ready to FLY!

Cuajete
Many thanks for your words, mates.

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.

Daniel Klink
Very well done mate and also well presented 👍

Cuajete
I'm glad you like it, Daniel. Thank you!

Cuajete
Thanks for the likes 👍

Patryk S.

Cuajete
Thanks, Charlie.

Ondrej Skarka
Beautiful job! 🙂

Cuajete
Many thanks, Ondrej. I'm glad you like it.

Bernhard Schrock
Nice little plane! Thx for building such an exotic type!
P.S.: TBZ probably does not mean Torpedo Bomber Zlin🙂

Cuajete
Many thanks to you for your comment, Bernhard. Your projects are a great inspiration for all modellers. Maybe OK-TBZ means that 😄

Marko
small sleek aircraft, classic design and of course superbly built👌

Cuajete
Thank you Marko. I'm glad you like it 🙂 👍

Kyle DeHart
This is a lovely little plane. Love that long nose.

Cuajete
Thank you Kyle!
Very much appreciated 👍👍

Cuajete
Also many thanks for the likes to all mates 🙂 👍

Łukasz Gliński
That nose would suit Sir Freddie Laker perfectly 😉

Cuajete
Yep, Łukasz! 😄

Roland Gunslinger, thx for your like 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Si, it seems to fit his concept of Superfeighters and Carvairs very well 😉

Cuajete
Thanks again for your likes, mates 🙂 👍

Greg Baker
This one looks better every time I see it. 🙂

Cuajete
Oh! thank you so much Greg!
I wonder what it would look like in the Tintin's hands and among your big projects, if this were possible 🙂

Cuajete
@J35J, many thanks for your visit and like 👍

Michael Kohl
Perfect NMF. Top.

Ben M
Holy cow, that's some surface prep and painting.

Alexander Perov
Thank you guys

Dave Flitton
Looking good so far!!

Cuajete
Thank you!

Ekki
Watching.

Cuajete
Thanks for comment, Ekki.

Arash Zakeri
very nice

Cuajete
Thank you Arash.

Updated new pics. Painted propellers and... reflective bands??

Cuajete
Updated new pics. Smoke and antennas

Bart Goesaert
looks very good, especially with the panellines coming out of the model... very nice work...

Holger Kranich
Great build for such an old warhorse!

Ekki
Great work.

Cuajete
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.

Ekki
Again, well done!

Cuajete
Many thanks again, Ekki 🙂

Oleg Smilyk
Splendid!

Dave Flitton
Excellent - if you can pull this off with an old Airfix, imagine what you can do with the Academy kit!!!

Pierre
Looks great! Nifty little plane.

John Thomas
Very nice

Cuajete
Many thanks for your comments, mates!

Spanjaard
very nice result Cuajete!

Cuajete
Muchas gracias, Spaanjard! 😉

Cuajete
I tried to make a base. Here is the result.

Spanjaard
nice

Cuajete
Thanks Spanjaard.

Cuajete
Thanks for the likes 👍

Łukasz Gliński
Looks like I missed this one 👍 What is going on in pic #25?

Cuajete
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.

Łukasz Gliński
Muchos gracias 👍

Mirko Römer
Test passed!! Loks great!

Cuajete
Thanks, mates. Much appreciated.

Matthew A
Amazing

Cuajete
Thanks a lot, Matthew 🙂

Helerson Maciel
Excelente!
Trabalho magnífico.

Rui
Nice! 👍

Alberto
Great looking classic kit! I like the base too 👍

Oliver Zwiener
Great work , made this 7 years ago : modellversium.de/gal..dene-hersteller.html

Finn
Great work, well done!

Jan Peters
Nice Bronco, from a vintage kit 👍🏻

Cuajete
Many thanks, mates. Your words make me very happy, thank you for these motivating words! I'm really glad that the model is liked and well received!

Oliver, great job for your NOGS. Fantastic result 👍

Cuajete
Thanks for your likes, mates 🙂 👍

Erik Torp
Allways cool to see what is possible with old kits. Great job!

Cuajete
Many thanks for your comment, Erik.
Upgrading old kits is a challenge, but it can also become an suffered addiction.

Neil
Fantastic work Cuajete! 👏 I too have built an aged Testors 1/48 Bronco recently, so appreciate the work... Your efforts look brilliant here mate 👍

Dean Harpster
Looks great! Adding the antenna wires really adds realism but I find it hard to do. Very nice work!

Neuling
Well done! Very appealing colors.

Guy Rump
Great job on this older kit. Congrats! 👍

Cuajete
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.

Thanks for your likes, mates! 👍

Bernd Grün
You made a little gem of this old kit. Congratulation! I'll take a seat.

Cuajete
I'm very happy to hear that, Bernd! Thanks for your charming words 👍

David Culp
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!

Cuajete
Thanks a lot, David. Your words are very encouraging and appreciated. I only looked at pic 34 and tried to reproduce it on the model. You also have a very nice OV-10BZ. I didn't know about that variation you made.

Thanks to all mates for your likes! 👍

David Culp
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 🙂

Cuajete
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?

David Culp
We went to Zaragoza twice each year to practice shooting rockets at the Bardenas Reales range. The rest of the time we were in Sembach AB, Germany.

Cuajete
I know that base in Zaragoza. I was living in that city for a few years and I was also there at the NATO Tiger Meet 2016 🙂 👍

Dick
Very nice build Cuajete👍🏻, beautiful Bronco!

Cuajete
Thank you very much Dick. It is a pride to read your words knowing the wonderful great projects that you do. I would have liked to improve some parts of the kit and repanel, but I still do not dare to do those things.

Cuajete
Many thanks for your likes, mates! 🙂 👍

Agustin Prellezo
Very well done! Muy buen trabajo!

Cuajete
Muchas gracias, Agustín! 😉

Cuajete
Thanks again for your likes, mates! 🙂 👍

Andy Ball
I loved this kit when I was a kid!, you've done a great job on it Cuajete!!

Łukasz Gliński
@Cuajete: Seems like you motivated ICM to release the new one 😄

Cuajete
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!

Cuajete
Thanks again for your likes, mates 🙂

Cuajete
Hi mates!

Added comments on all pics. Thanks for watching.

I hope that the new ICM tool is a success and that it offers unusual and striking decorations.

Jorge Ferreira
Beautifull. I build this one ,one hundred years ago (more or less) I painted it with silver. All of them. Great memories. Thank you Cuajete.

Joseph Russo
That is an amazing build from the Aifix fit the OV-10 is my favorite aircraft, I will buy the ICM 1/72 kit even though I already build the ICM 1/48 kit which was a dream to build, I know you will enjoy building the ICM kit

Cuajete
Jorge and Joseph, thanks for your kind words. I'm glad that this project has served to remember good old days.
