Here are some whatif made with my seven years old son

[marco]

Hello, here are some differents kits (all in 1/72 scale), mainly old kit (from the 70's), repaired (often with parts from my spare box), and repainted, the concept are decided in common with my son, Thomas. i try to make him paint, apply the decalcs, and others detail. The important thing is the discussion we have  to decide the project, so he can work his imagination, and understand the "real" airplanes and have a small "aéro-culture"!


This one is made with a junker's ju 52 float


Servimg is very long this morning..; more pictures later

Thomas shows great talent Marco.  

I like the radical use of the floats!

[marco]

Thank you, very kind, and we do have fun together with these kits.
And well, we share a passion for float planes...
here's an awful Atlantic japanese tank (shin to?) with a panther's turret:









This one need a canopy...

Very nice! I especially like the pulsejet floatplane, and the SR.53.

[kerick]

Well done! Great way to fire up your son's imagination.

Great stuff - love the USN Typhoon in particular

My goodness! Some nice results and hard to pick a best one too. 

I would probably go with the float Hayate because of the backstory it could have where the IJAAF would make this as an insult to the IJN, after reading about all of their interservice rivalries. In fact the Army had a carrier, a CVE type, in reality.

  Maybe time to open a SIG for budding bashers?

Thank you, that's very kind, Thomas says: "Merci!"
here's a small kit bash , 1/76 scale, a mix beetween a turetless panzer I (i suppose) and Vickers light tank Mk IV (chinese colors):

Wow......how much fun did you have doing those.... What a fantastic collection.....!!! A budding bashers thread at least......

[The Rat]

Now that is wonderful! You guys make quite a team, make certain that neither of you gets traded.

I love the American D-XXIII
