@Marco They are from the Kelic set, the only thing I would say about them is that, I had to superglue them in.

You'll have to mind the white stuff on the roof as one of the glazing cracked in half so I am trying to get a piece of acetate to fit and need the pva to dry so I have an outline of the hole.

Washed.. now letting it settle a bit before I mush much more with it.

Welp, I think its about done.. there are things I would have done differently and tbh will do differently with the next one. But for a quick break away from the decal fest that is the JASDF F-4 that its in progress then I'm happy.

Thanks Gorby
Its no perfect, but gives me a smile. Dunno what it is with the O-2 its just a funky little plane.

Nice looking O-2 Augie. I dug mine out the other day, finally got the 3-D decals for the interior. Trying to decide which will be next it or the Kitty Hawk F-94C.

I hope I can do it justice. I will be doing a very special version. My father was in Vietnam in 1968 and O-2's were what he worked on. Believe it or not. He worked on F-106's F-104's F-101's F-100's and F-86's in Korea. They sent him to Vietnam and he wound up on O-2's, strange huh. Then 21 years after he retired from the Air Force I wound up working on F-106's converting them to full size radio controlled aerial target drones.

Oh wow, yeah I can understand that 🙂
One thing I will say with the kit, is just be carefull with the windows, they can be a little difficult to keep in the frames.

I will be sure to remember that. What type of glue did you use to glue them in? Will micro crystal clear hold them in or do I need to use careful application of Tamiya extra thin? Notice I said CAREFUL. Lol. I just bought my first bottle of Mr. Cement type S, I think I may like it better than the Tamiya.

Ouch, that sounds like fun. I will bet they will be a nightmare to mask also. I decided to order the metal landing gear, so the F-94C got the go ahead first. I spent the day filling ejector pin marks. The cockpit floor has 6 of them alone. Yuck, lots of sanding ahead.
