Marklo Posted November 25, 2021 Author Share Posted November 25, 2021 Most of the rest of the pieces. I managed to find photos of the interior so the two IP’s are now fairly accurate, the two cockpits are all glass with a right hand side joystick, so easy enough to fabricate. Still using the mig seats and the ordinance from my Esci set. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marklo Posted November 25, 2021 Author Share Posted November 25, 2021 it would have to be a five bladed propellor, still nothing a bit of milliput and some plastic strip can’t fix. You can see the two IPs top left. Tips might need a tiny trim. As it currently sits. Just about paint ready. The Mwari has a third set of hard points inboard of the booms with fuel tanks, toying with the idea of adding these, might as well go for broke Paint next… 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklo Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 And done. Reasonably pleased with that. Which leaves. A little touch up and blemish cleanup, antennae and possibly the nose thing, the interior and decals/ markings. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklo Posted November 27, 2021 Author Share Posted November 27, 2021 (edited) Decals the Bronco is in white film as it tends to behave better. The rest are on clear which sometimes just curls up and dies both sets have need sprayed with clear lacquer and left overnight. Getting the decals trimmed and on puts me at at least 95% done What’s left: 1. finish the interior 2. struts for the canopy 3. blades and antennae 4. those wing lights 5. one or two small cleanup jobs Edited November 27, 2021 by Marklo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I know Mozambique has bought a few although America has eliminated them from the contest for a new COIN aircraft. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
