He 115 in Sweden, T-2
The frame in place, as it will be covered by the pilots seat, the result is ok for me.
Gaps everywhere! But easy to fill.
Floor and sidewalls are 3mm too short. Some sheets of plastic helped to fill the gaps.
RLM02 painted. The inner side of the wing is a good test flat for the airbrush 🙂
Minor washing
The mesh of a teabag is good enough for the air inlet screen. Attached with kristal klear
Some extra work on the elevators. Rudder separated. I used a band saw with a 0.5mm blade to make a thin cut.
Soo, after a long "break", I picked up this project again. Wings installed, some putty is needed...
Used the book "Aufklärer, Bomber, Seenotretter" as a reference for the floats. The etched kit parts stayed in the box, I used 0.5x0.5 square plastic strips as a replacement.
On both floats, I added a mooring ring as per picture in the reference book.
Reference pictures. For me, it seems like a protective cover in front of the oil cooler mesh,
The kit offers a fully opened oil cooler. In the www, one can find two types of oil cooler. I'll go for the nearly closed one, as i only found pics with this type on Swedish T2. (I found Pictures of both types for German Versions)
Never found on any drawings, these non-retractable steps were added below the oil cooler on the forward strut.

Nice progress on what looks like a surprisingly difficult kit - keep it up!

Well, I had a looong break but your built inspired me and gave me new motivation to go on 🙂 Also, I got the beaching trolley this week! So work goes on with the engines.
