LCM & sails, red : hybrid aircraft/animals e.a.

[PR19_Kit]

I guess something  had to be around for Hamilton Standard and Dowty Rotol to stay in business all this time.

Great! (but I am scared, are they animals from Earth or monsters from Hell?)

I stumbled upon this on the web somewhere :


and it gave me ideas, with other car kits :

the Peugeot 203, in red





and the Peugeot 403, in blue





both 1/43, combined with a 1/35 pontoon (german, by Bronco Models IIRC)

Nice.
The boats are the Dragon German Army 'assault' boat, I have one in work at the moment converted
to inboard power with the White straight-6 from an old Bandai 1/48 M3 half-track.

thanks !

with the remaining airframes of 1/350 Ro.43 and MB411, after stealing their floats for other purposes, I did something insect-like, like in the past with fly-tape or a glass, but this time with a flower (1:1, injection plastic, from Ikea):

[Captain Canada]

haha good one ! I like those pests 

[Tophe]

Funny, yes, thanks!

[steelpillow]

That's lovely. 

More, please.

[NARSES2]

Wonderfull 

[TheChronicOne]

That's really cool right there! Like honey bees.   

[ericr]

thanks all !

you want more ?
really ?
wait and see 

[Tophe]

really ?
wait and see 

I will wait, anxious... I hope this is even more of just the same (already so incredible...). Going further seems impossible

[ericr]

remember this ?

here is what the Buccaneer fuselage became, with wings from the spares box, coming from a Twin Otter

I was so tempted to try the reciprocal, that I found cheap sales boxes of the former Matchbox, now Revell kits, and here is the
Twin Otter and Buccaneer wings, red :

Very nice!! That candy coat....
