I cheated a bit with the length of the rear gear to make it plausible

That works for me. It's not like that's not been done before.

I made another one, with a Stirling I received as bonus when buying other kits, and a suitable boat I had to find

Beautiful!! Quite believable, too; I could see Stirlings being re-purposed like this as they were replaced by more modern bombers in Bomber Command.

small is beautiful : 1/144 i-16s with floats from 1/200 i-16s

Photo looks 1/72. Extra nice for 1/144. Black accents add a bunch.

Beautiful little gems.

The I-16s look great! Are those the Zvezda ones?

ericr · « **Reply #888 on:** October 24, 2019, 02:18:19 AM »

yes indeed : a neat little kit

I found a kind of diorama for my 1/200 seaplane kits in the form of a (half-price, at the time ...) 1/200 kit of an oil rig platform, which It transformed into seaplane support platform, with two catapults and cranes :

thanks!

elmayerle · « **Reply #892 on:** October 28, 2019, 03:37:35 AM »

Beautiful and plausible!! I love it.

finsrin · « **Reply #893 on:** October 28, 2019, 10:36:17 AM »

Swell repurposing with cranes, catapults, and all them seaplanes. Complexity of platform is lot to take in.

Thanks again !

in the last times I did quite a few quite big kits (which I found for quite cheap)
but here is something very small (so small I had to simplify it a bit):

1/700 Seafox (with folded wings version ...)
