Kitty Hawk look to have picked a winner for their next 1:32 release - the North American OV-10 Bronco.

If there are some interesting schemes for this then I am definitely interested, maybe even masks for the camo

A winner for sure. At the rate of new 1/32 scale releases, plus the fact that everyone of them I really want, my strict 1/48 scale rule is starting to crumble.

Hi Joel
Say that loud and often enough and even Steffen might begin to buckle in face of the onslaught... "Nein! Niemals!" - I hear a cry...

Rowan,
tell me about it. My bother, builds mostly 1/32 scale aircraft (hangs out on LSP), is always trying to convert me. I've resisted for a long time. But with the number of new and interesting releases, it's getting harder all the time not to test those "waters". Especially, as I continue to age (66 & counting), the old eyes are getting any better.

Cheers to Kittyhawk, Rowan!
Not my scale, but one of "my" aircrafts! And with desert storm scheme, the weathering possibilities on this one are huge.

Sure hope that they don't "forget" to release both the single seat Cougar and the Panther, I'm still waiting for both kits to hit the selves.

Yep, say that loud!!! I hardly can get my 48scale models done so I woudl never finsh anything in that "buy a new house" scale.
I am happy with 48 and I will not change ..
BTW I am not too happy with the KittyHawk kits I have so there's no chance to get me converted with this announcement.
all the best

Hi again
Glen Coleman has sent us photos of the test-shot under construction. Steffen will doubtless be unmoved

- but it really looks something to drool over for the rest of us!

Fairly, I don't think this one would profit from the large scale as it doesn't seem to have so many details. Plus it is an overkill in regards to the space it would take on the shelf... But this is apparently just me feeling this way!
