Re: Roden 1/48 OV-1D Mohawk
Pretty neat. Something you don't see modeled often. Are saying the Roden kit wasn't easy? I've been eyeballing that kit. I've only done one other Roden kit - their T-28 and liked the kit.
Thanks,
John

If you used the Roden decals you have my admiration. Nice looking build.

Very nicely done! That looks really good with the scene you created. How does that kit rate for quality of assembly? Ease of fit, etc.? I have the OV-1A version in my stash and am quite curious.

Mercy, that is nice!
To make each build less crappy than the last one. Or, put another way, "Better than the last one, not as good as the next one!"..

Re: Roden 1/48 OV-1D Mohawk
the fit is good overall, clear parts does not fit in length
the surface is crispy on must be sanded down
Eduard for interour is must, you see all in the canopy
Quickboost engine fit excelent, avionic bay fit good but the nose bay is not shown on Quickboost picture and as usual there is no instruction sheet
overall it is not easy but a seldom very special model
