Don't know about that but I thought it was a drawing, until I read "This is a model not a drawing." at the top of the post.

I'm assuming it's a plastic or resin part made to look like carbon.  It's done well.

Tonight I found these on the Unofficial Airfix Modellers Forum.  Apologies if they've been posted before.

Cannon armed 2 seat Bf 109 Nightfighter


Bubble canopied P-40.  IMO it looks Russian for some reason.


Arado Italian Dive Bomber


Both from 2013 threads by Nax here and here

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

The Arado dive bomber is an intriguing idea. And offers some spare floats for other uses too. ;D

Nice finds. I like the P-40 especially. Think I'll put that one in the idea bank. I hadn't really noticed how Russian it looks until you pointed it out !

I have a part started one that is part of my Imperial Austro Hungarian A.F. storyline. The floats are going on a Karas which will be the Imperial navy's Archduke Charles's spotter.

The P-40 is nice but the canopy just doesn't go with that early nose IMHO. The XP-40Q has always been a nice looking aircraft
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

I had a similar idea for a floatless Ar 196 - nice to see how spats look on that aircraft. Good find.  :thumbsup:
And the paint scheme on the Bf 109 night fighter is nice, even though I have doubt concerning the gun installation. If the prop blades don't get shot away, the gun blast will certainly do? And I wonder how much ground clearance is left...  :rolleyes:

BTW, I stumbled across this whiffy boat(?) kit from Choroszy (Poland):




Called GERMAN TORPEDO PLANING BOAT MANTA, in 1:72. Somewhat sexy.  :wub:

Dizzyfugu

Yes!  :ph34r:

Even with a beaching gear. It just can't fly...  :rolleyes:

Captain Canada

That's pretty wild ! Sneak in and attack, then get on the plane and over the horizon for your next attack.

Okay, not really a whif, but too cool not to share:

That's gorgeous...  :thumbsup: And how did they get into my home without my notice?

Fantastic! A japanese boy's idea of paradise.
I hope the paint-box exhaust discharge in his parents room!  ;D
