Welcome aboard Nicolas and Neil! Thanks for your interest.

Lochsa River
have to sit in...this is in the stash...I was looking at it yesterday...

Lochsa River
A tip...others who built this kit had trouble around the cockpit....

Guy Rump
Following! 👍

Carlo
Nice, a flying boat. Hope this(or Sword) kit gets re-issued one day soon..

Taking a seat.

Landlubber Mike
Thanks for following guys. Lochsa, you're right about the canopy. There are fit issues in general with this kit - most of which aren't too difficult to deal with - but the canopy is a bit of a mess. I'm not really looking forward to that part of the build.

Robert Podkoński
Taking a seat here too!

Landlubber Mike
Thanks for joining Robert!

Michael Kohl

Thanks Ben and Zbynek, welcome aboard! Thanks for looking in!

Alec K
Nice detailing and progress 👍

Transall NG
A nice and strong landing gear !

Landlubber Mike
Thanks guys! Transall, it seems a lot stronger than the kit parts which were made from pretty thin plastic.

Pietro De Angelis
Beautiful work, congrats!

Landlubber Mike
Thank you Pietro! Still a long way to go. In the middle of priming the fuselage and having gap and other problems popping up. This is the build that never seems to end 🙁

gorby
Amazing work on the landing gear.

Landlubber Mike
Thanks Gorby! This was my first time trying to scratch build landing gear. Took me probably 20 hours 🙁 I ended up using Albion Alloys brass tubing for a lot of it, along with music wire, copper wire, plastic tubing, and other materials. I've bumped it a few times already and it is very stable so fingers crossed it makes it to the finish line!

Mr D
Nice 😀👍 a water-bird , nice work and like the extras

Landlubber Mike
Thanks Mr D! Really appreciate it!

Jennifer Franklin
I love all the scratch building, especially the landing gear; it is very nice! It's a great result.

Landlubber Mike
Thank you very much Jennifer!

Michael Kohl
Time to replace the teaser picture with one of your build. 🙂

Landlubber Mike
That might jinx me!

Michael Kohl
Oh yeah. You gotta be super-careful with that. This site is full of black magic. Pssst. Between us: I know for sure because it's the only explanation how some guys here achieve their otherworldly results.
Happy modelling - but watch your back 😉

Landlubber Mike
Yeah, I know what you mean. Some people here are ridiculously talented!

I ended up finishing the JRS-1 tonight. Finally pictures in my album. And Michael, I did replace the teaser picture with my final build - now that it's done and stored in my glass case, much less risk of jinxing myself!

gorby
WOW Stunning result Mike!
Looks like you might be one of those ridiculously talented people. 😉

Guy Rump
Excellent modelling. 👍

Neuling
I agree with gorby and Guy. 👍👍

Curatorm
A masterpiece and a delight for the eyes, bravo!

Alec K
Very well done 👍

Michael Kohl
Excellent result.

Landlubber Mike
Thank you guys! This one was a tricky one for sure, but I'm happy with how it came out. Definitely a cool paint scheme, very colorful bird!

Ctirad B
A beautifully made kit of an unusual aircraft! Bravo!

Maciej T.
And Old Cinema 😉 Youtube Video

David Taylor
Wow.

Spanjaard
Wow, amazing duo

Maciej T.
Thanks men 🙂

Neuling
Perfect work! So many interesting details to see, all of them taken care of with great attention. Great modelling!

Maciej T.
Thanks Neuling 😄
As an author, however, I can see some mistakes - fortunately I don't have to point them out myself 😉 😛

Neuling
I didn´t notice any mistake whatsoever ....... keep on making mistakes, Maciej, they´r a joy to watch!

Maciej T.
😄 😄

Michael Kohl
I think 9 pics are sufficient- for each of the figures. And then a couple of dozends more for the rest. Hey, what happened? You ran out of battery power? 😉
The build? Absolutely amazing - from what I can judge from the insufficient amoung of pictures. 😉

Dominik Weitzer
wow. Thats a kind of a masterpiece. I'm very impressed.

Maciej T.
Gentlemen, you put me to shame.... Thank you very, very much 😄
Michael: it seems to me that in the video you can see virtually everything (including the interior after the tower is raised).... But if you want I can take some more close-up photos.... Just from which side? 😉 😄

Olivier
Top notch result !

Rui S
Well, it's a Maciej T. Work what to expect? An Excellent Dio of course 👍
If I'm allowed, just the shiny uniform's... 🤔

Maciej T.
Yes, these uniforms in normal daylight are OK. This effect of "shining" can be seen only under the influence of photographic lamps (softbox)... Although the figures are finely powdered with satin varnish....

Rui S
Like said Maciej, Great work and Dio, I would go with mate varnish on clothes 😉

Tom B.
Gorgeous work mate 👍 Remembering the Panther´s realiability issues and hard to access transmission, this scene must have been a common "event" for tank repair crews!

Pietro De Angelis
Fantastic work and dio.

Villiers de Vos
Very nice.

Jv
Very interesting must have been fun to build

Maciej T.
It was very fun to build 🙂. Although putting chains on Strabo cost a lot of "ugly words" 😉

Mathias Decommere
Congratulations!

Dominik Weitzer
excellent model.

Bohrmann
Impressive work.

Maciej T.
Thanks men 🙂
