I wanted to do a quick, no hassle build while still working on the F4B-4, so I chose this 1/35 Bronco V1 kit The build was very straightforward, and just required a little fit tweaking at the wingroots and on the engine insert that represents the air slats (the intake). I painted the bottom with RLM 76LichtBlau; the fuselage with RLM 83 DunkelGrun; and the wings/tailplanes with RLM 81 BraunViolet consistent with the sub-assembly nature of the V1's manufacturing, and to give it a more interesting look. Overall a nice easy build, and it looks pretty cool in the display case On to the photos:
Thanks for looking! Comments/questions always welcome

Hi Buddy,what a great build.I`ve got one of these in my stash along with the "self-sacrifice" version - Hitler was loathe to use the term suicide pilot !. I really like the variation of colours on the wings and fuselage as i`m now reading the New Vanguard book and it states that missile components were often built in different factories.
Anything Will Fit If You Use A Big Enough Hammer !!
If you produce it in Injection Moulded Plastic SOMEONE is bound to buy it !
If you want it 100% accurate - SCRATCHBUILD IT !!
