Amazingly Cool ! It does look like a Bronco !  But IIRC, he used 2 Apache kits as a basis. Very nice job of scratch building !   :D

OV-10A Bronco was a light Recon/Multimission Aircraft used by the USAF & USMC in the'60s until the early '80s, IIRC. It had an extended  canopy, like on this model.  But as I said, he used the AH-64 Apache for basis of his conversion.  :D

It's an Apache cockpit all right:



I had a 1:48 Apache that ended up distributed round my 40k Space Marine army.   Apart from the crew, my land speeder was completely bodged from that kit.

Edit:  If I had bothered to read the article before posting I would have seen that he gives a fairly good breakdown of what went into it.  Ho, hum.

Yes, I've seen an Apache up close and personal in my past !  It was a YAH-64 when I first saw it back then !  :D  And I still have an old Airfix catalogue, and the Bronco is in there !  :)
