I have set aside 3 kits for this GB:

1/72 Matchbox Lysander
1/72 Matchbox Walrus
1/72 Xotic SC-1 Seahawk

Walrus with Lysander wings ? :)

Walrus with Lysander wings ? :)

Maybe. Maybe Not.

Here is where I am at the Walrus build. New mono-wing design. Engine will be a tractor design like the Sea Otter.

In that view, it has a somewhat Eraknoplan look to it similar to this:

Here is a Matchbox Lysander and floats from a Matchbox Seafox. Both a rescue kits so parts are missing. Will need to fabricate new ones.

Close match for weight Carl, but some Blackburn Shark floats would be better

Re-wing Walrus looks the part! :)

Here is the SC-1 Seahawk. A nice low part count built. It will be built mostly stock. I may change a few bits.

I'm really liking your "new look" Walrus, Mr Gimper!
