That's the MOTHER of all main floats there, but it'd have to be with a Tigercat perched on top!

Is the float 1/48th and the aircraft 1/72?

It all works VERY well together, as usual with your stuff Ericr.  :thumbsup:
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! :)

thanks !

yes it is a float in 1/48th on the aircraft in 1/72

and the ladder is there, but I didn't think of gluing it ...

One of my favourite aircraft and it looks surprisingly good as a floatplane  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

also featuring one float from a Frog Swordfish, for asymetric stability
(how are these boats from the Pacific called, with a main hull and one side-float?)

Very lovely asymmetric model! :wub: :thumbsup: :bow:
I said model, not "flying boat" nor "floatplane", uh... It is more easy in French: not hydavion à coque nor hydravion à flotteur but hydravion à 1 coque et 1 flotteur... ;)

That means you've got a LOT of SM55X left over somewhere................  ;) ;D
