It seems to be the worst on the fuselage but most of the external surfaces have it so some extent. I had two different boxing of the kit but both exhibit the same issue. One of the first things I noticed was the rather rough surface finish, rather unusual I thought for a main stream kit, more like what one expects to see on limited run kits. OK, I cracked open the box today and after inspecting the contents thought I would post a couple of photos of some of the issues that will need to be dealt with in case anyone else decides to build one. WOW, you got some awesome kits, if you want to be on board with any of those just let me know. I can't promise to be aboard, but if I can squeeze in a project, I will! The Ar 196 is small! And it gives me a chance to rig the floats, which I've been thinking about for a long time (knitting cables together has a perverse attraction.) I also photographed the real S6B in the London Science Museum 18 months ago in preparation for a build, and that also features rigging. I don't have a lot of display space (make that almost none) so something small.

Revell Germany Bv 222 Viking (don't remember, but it's HUGE)Īnd there's anything else that coms along in the next year.

Revell History Makers Martin P6M Seamaster (fit-the-box scale).

Airfix 1:72 Arado Ar 196 and Short Sunderland.

I'm awfully tempted! I have five or six other GB committments in the same timeframe, but seaplanes are such cool things! Lessee, what do I have in my stash? Can I put you down for that? That model will probably make you a rival for the seaplane master of the universe.

You should totally build a China Clipper. Haha when I saw Boeing I thought you were working on some airliner for another group build, that's why I made the joke of floats(I should have looked up the "314" part). The 314 is better known as the Pan Am China Clipper and is probably the pinnacle of flying boat technology. Ok, I thought that might be part of it but wasn't sure.įloats!!! The 314 doesn't need any stinking floats. lol But seriously, wait till you see these seaplanes come together you'll be too jealous not to come play with us. If you put the Boeing on floats You can join. Anyone can join, at any time, and as you can see the rulez are very lax. Hey maybe it is a two for one build (build one kit get two GBs out of the way ).Īnyway I've still got a Minicraft Boeing 314 in 1/144 scale on the way ($19 BTW, I didn't see it on sale at Squadron ). Ok now I'm confused, is this the new and improved seaplane build, is the other one off or are there actually two seaplane builds.
