I saw the tiny boat from the Niña kit for the Arabian dhow build and couldn't resist a fun little distraction. It actually looks more like the small boat that goes over the waterfall in Tintin in the Congo, but the Canoe from The Broken Ear is a cover star. So, a bit of rhinoplasty with a bit of epoxy putty... and voila! One South American canoe.

Heh. Just a little bit of bite-sized entertainment...

Enough to make a good impression 😉

I think you've got to model Tintin and Snowy now. It's something all these models are missing!

Yes, and do resin copies and add them to all builds 😉

Hmmm, resin is so old school. I believe what is called for here is a 3D printer. This way Greg can do custom poses (with accessories like paddles) in 3D modeling software for each individual installation. Brilliant!
Greg, I keenly look forward to seeing your progress - and I think I speak for all of us here. Keep us posted please!

old school... but modelling is old school, isn't it? well, i have a few 3D printed things in my stash, i must admit 😄

All kidding aside... It would be nice to have Tintin and Snowy in there but that seems like a whole other hobby/skill of making miniatures. 3D printers are cool but they too are another hobby in of themselves.

one hobby i would love to try to be honest 😄 😄 one day i will have one of those toys at home. but not for a while 😛

I'd love to try my hand at 3D printing, and probably will one day... but not until I can find some "killer app" for my wife. 😉 In the meantime, I have gone down the path of figure making/painting, but only got as far as the driveway. It's not easy, and I doubt I'll make a bunch of resin copies (but never say never), but in the meantime, I do intend to have at least the trio of Tintin, Capt. Haddock and Snowy appear in the photoshoots. 😉

Got some brown paint on, but now I sit back and contemplate the eternal question for model makers... can I see that seam? Can anyone else?

Ok... so a weird little side project, I admit... but it's done all the same~

what a great difference with the figures 🙂

Yeah. They all look MUCH better with figures. With these latest two (the canoe and the German police motorbike w/ sidecar) I'm now down to my last previously finished project in need of an upgrade - the DHC Chipmunk. Since I got an updated kit (arguably better than the ancient Airfix one) I wanted to give that one another go right from the spures.

Very nice result. Great job!
Congrats.
