You should link up the kit to the project. Military Flying Boat (Playfix Kits 15690, 1:72)

That looks and sounds cool.

Thanks, it's a vintage kit from 70's to 1990's, Revell used to sell it as a re-box too,
I built it back in 1992.....as a 12 year old , Built in 1 night with decals slapped straight on white plastic !🤣
So it's a nostalgic re-visit, l built 3 or 4 from the line as they were cheap, larger n easy for youngsters.
This was favourite out the line-up .....So be to see how it goes 35yrs later.
Thanks for interest 😁👍👍👍

Somehow slapping the decals on an unpainted plane seems rather appealing. I bet that was kind of cool.

A pleasure to look at! I like the classic RCAF 104 loadout with 5 x BL755.

I love the canadian Starfighters. Great to see suchban excellent model of them.

Impressive finish and paintwork!

Thank you for all your kind words. With the excellent paints like AK Xtreme, MRP Super Silver and Mr Color Metallic II (thinned with rapid thinner), it is easy to do. For me this is easier (and faster) than a convincing painted camouflage pattern. Appreciate all the feedback 👍

Yesterday the A.90 Orlyonok thundered in front, here are a couple of pictures of this event! 🙂 I added a few things to the kit, such as the prominent framework in front of the cockpit, which I built "on sight" with suitable wire. I haven't been able to find out what it's for - aerials, windscreen wipers/cleaning? - but I know that it contributes quite prominently to the appearance. I also added the various aerials on the fuselage and engine.
Thanks again for the hint about the 'ironed' water behind and under the engine, that was an important tip and came in time, thanks to Robert!

Looks absolutely perfect, Roland! Chapeau bas! (I am happy that I have contributed a bit to this effect 😉 )

Thank you for your appreciated comments - it is of course very motivating to receive such feedback!

Guy Rump
Excellent as usual! 👍

Skyhiker
Did you use magnets to make it float?

Villiers de Vos
Beautiful work and effects.

Roland Sachsenhofer
Thank you very much mates! In fact, the A.90 'floats' on two fine metal rods; I apologise for taking the freedom to wipe them away with the image processing.
