Tempest is a Revell and Float is a kit of Aichi E13. I have one float for another plane...

Nice!  :thumbsup:
Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?

Brillinat idea and brilliant modelling as well.  :cheers:

Not to mention the name, how appropriate can you get?  -_-
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Maybe, but you shrunk it to 1/144 and that takes serious SKILL!
