Vallejo Model Air RLM23 added to the back and black to the front. The floats were painted with Vallejo Model Air Aluminium. Next will be the gloss varnish for the decals. 🙂

Many thanks for the kind comment Robert. It is quite a simple kit but quite satisfying (so far) as my first float plane. 👍

Welcome Finn, grab a seat. 👍

Gloss varnish applied, decals added and then floats. The floats went on OK but it was quite fiddly. 🙂

This is now complete. Propellor added, bombs added etc. and of course the masking was removed. The final finish was with a satin varnish. Quite happy with the result of my first float plane. The float parts were a bit fiddly but other than that, a nice fitting model.

The aircraft denoted was attached to the I7 submarine during 1942.

Very nice build Guy, looking really great. The satin varnish looks good; I will keep it in mind for my own builds in the future. Any plans for your next build?

Robert Podkoński
Good job, Guy! I think this kit will land on my desk soon thanks to you 😉
