Remaining works are not many. I sure will finish this project in a foreseeable future.

I'm glad to know that you noticed the petals. The spinner is the parts I devoted myself the most. I designed the petals myself though it is handwriting.

Thank you for your kind words.

I was going to use the rocket pods take out from the Apache but on second thought decided to make new one provided in the kit.
After cut out holes on the end discs, glued small dia. tubes on the back of the holes and also glued large dia. tubes along the circumference of the discs to reinforce fragile discs.

I found the black lines around the holes stand out and the lines are blur. So I decided to draw the discs newly.
It's a shame I don't have AUTO CAD so used the shape of Microsoft excel. It's primitive way but better than handwriting.
Drew the lines gray so that it will not stand out.
I had to adjust size and position of the holes moving it little by little and build it by the trial and error method.

The third image shows rocket pods provided in this kit and from the Apache.

Strange, do you not receive the files of the rockets podes?
There is a file with the planning of the 4 carriers under the body and another 4 underwing.

Here is an example of the file and images of rockets on the plane.

In addition I am attaching a picture of the model, built by David from Spain.

Yu,
I have only recently discovered this build thread since I was not yet a member here when it was first posted. You are a master with paper! Your Ov19a Bronco is incredible. I have so much to learn from you. Thank you for the informative and detailed posts, and I'm glad you're back to modeling!

I am glad to see that you are working on this beautiful model again, Yu-sama.

You are very generous to mention me with such kind words but I am not a master but just a slow modeler.
Nevertheless if my thread could be of any help to you I would be happy.

I am determined to complete this model!


Giving in to the designer's pressure, done two more sets of rocket pods, 12 rockets and missing parts. To make the pylon pattern referring to the sample sheet the designer posted, again used Microsoft excel.
Excel isn't a designing software so I had to adjust dimension of some sections during the build.

Now that I have full sets of the rockets pods threw away the one taken out from the Apache.

I built test piece of tail section of the rocket but found it needs redesigning so will post it in next update.
