pookie Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 My intention is to build all 10 Testors OV-10 models I have. This is #2 so far and it's in the colors of NASA 524 at Langley. I made the decals and the boom, the rest is 100% Testors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DET1460 Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Very nice! A great change of pace from the dedicated military 'Broncs. I also like the NASA theme. Well done. DET1460 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
pookie Posted June 1, 2023 Author Share Posted June 1, 2023 Thank you. I think most modelers are into bombs, rockets and missiles. I like the civilian side of airpower. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

pookie Posted June 1, 2023 Author Share Posted June 1, 2023 (edited) Thank you guys, I know the Testors kit is long in the tooth and not perfect, but neither am I. I want to build as many as I can before my eyes give out and this kit builds fast. I have a couple ICM kits. I am considering doing those as well. 3 hours ago, Dutch said: pookie, Very well done! Love the NASA livery. Are you also planning a CDF fire plane as well? K/r, Dutch Yeah, I did that one first. I used Draw decals which make the early paint scheme version they don't use any more. I am building the 4 and 5 bladed versions they have so I drew decals the other day for those as well. That sheet should keep me busy for a while.

Cubs2jets Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 Pookie It's hard to tell from the pics, but it looks like you added something to fill the empty space that is the rear cockpit. Can you say what? C2j Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Can you say what? C2j I just add plastic strips to the back of the kit's seat to make it a little closer to reality and then I make a duplicate rear seat out of plastic strips as well. I'll taker a picture of that for the one I am building now and post it when I upload that one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ST0RM Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Really cool Broncos. Great seeing the other work they did. I remember seeing one of NASA's Broncos at a Moffett Field airshow, many many years ago. This this was a fond reminder. Great job on both! -Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites
