Interesting subject! You seem to be conquering the difficulty of the main kit.

Indeed Nathan...

Welcome! (I feel a bit intimidated, to be sincere...🙂 )

I've built this kit a few years ago and encountered the same problems. So you are going to ad floats?
 6 May 2021, 16:31
Robert Podkoński
Yes I do Bernd. And build it as a single-seater 🙂

Robin (WhiteGlint)
Taking a seat. 🙂
This bird looks really interesting.

Welcome! I feel encouraged 😉 In the meantime I have been wondering what would be the other contestants. What do you think about Vought F4F Corsair and maybe Martin-Baker MB.2 on floats? 😄
 8 May 2021, 06:59
Robin (WhiteGlint)
What a sleek looking aircraft.
I'd say go for the MB.2 as the other contestant.
Or do you plan to give the Corsair floats, too?

Interesting.

@WhiteGlint: these are just some loose ideas, but IMHO Corsair is best suited for floats - if there was Spitfire on floats, Bf 109 and even Wildcatfish... it is a pity however that there is only a resin (read: quite costly) kit of MB.2 available. And I would have to purchase two, as I do really like its look on wheels. Nevertheless, I have run out of spare floats for the moment (at least in 1/72nd scale... 😉)

Robin (WhiteGlint)
A Corsair on floats doesn't sound bad either 👍

Looking good Robert 👍
 14 July 2021, 20:02
Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Guy 🙂 It needs a lot of repeated (read - tedious) puttying and sanding...

Take-off mode looks great, in my opinion.
 24 July 2021, 14:23
Robert Podkoński
Thank you, WhiteGlint, for your suggestion. I think it would be cool to make some dynamic-looking "water" base, but I have never tried to make one and I am afraid I am not able to...🙁 Instead, maybe I will try to make floats movable on some kind of hinges and with actuators... It is just a loose idea for now, of course 😉
 24 July 2021, 15:43
Robin (WhiteGlint)
If it is resin you fear, you don't have to use it go make great water bases.
I used air-dry clay and AK Water Gel and it looks okay for a first try.

There is also another method with aluminium foil, white glue and some other stuff. Scale-a-ton made a nice video about this method.

Thank you very much, WhiteGlint, for this tutorial 🙂 I think, I will give it a try as soon as I will finish my Caproni Schneider Racer (successfully...I hope 🙂 ) I just reminded myself that once I made a simple water-based dio with Kami-de-Korokoro Piaggio-Pegna kit... 😉

I have started to collect aluminium wraps from chocolate already... I think I will need a whole lot of them 😉

Looking forward to it 👍

Such a tidy clean workspace. How do you get anything done?

Nice work Robert. I'd love to see it take off...if you could see it though all the steam it would produce. 😄
 13 May, 06:57
Robert Podkoński
Thank you, Gorby! I suppose there would be a lot of steam and water spray behind 😉
