1/72 Airfix
Cessna O-1F Bird Dog
21st TASS
Vietnam War

Another model completed for the Vietnam II GB.

Kept it OOB and a lot of sanding and filing was required. The result wasn't too bad for a vintage kit and the build can be described as very typical Airfix.

Excellent model for such a small one!

It's an oldie and damn hard to get something decent out of it. So you have done brilliantly!!!

Congrats

JR

Hello

Thanks guys, appreciate the comments :cheers:

It was a bit of a challenge for my skills at least and decided to try the best I can at building the model. Not perfect but still happy it turned out better than I thought it would.

Hello,Knight Flyer - You're a modest gentleman,Good Sir.Your Bird Dog has a lovely clean paint finish,well-adhered decals and crisply framed canopy framing.I'm sure Ronnie will be very proud of his Racer! All the best,Paul.
