I love your blue/red camo with bright yellow wings: like every camo, this is for the plane not to be seen at all with the landscape in the background... and this is just perfect in a toy store with Mickey Mouse and other puppets... ;D :thumbsup:

sometimes the camouflage is not meant to hide : like the zebra for example!  ;D
it is rather making it difficult to recognize the shape.
Like in dazzle ships camouflage : some beautiful patterns there

Or maybe it's "That's so bizarre and noticeable that it can't really be there!"  :lol:

Cheers

I used the floats for twin-float versions, so there remained the airframes :
i order to avoid uselessness, with the floatless MB411 and Ro.43, I built up this fly-tape scene :

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Tee hee hee ! That's too funny. I like it ! That would look great hanging somewhere. Now I can see myself sticking wee aeroplanes on real fly tape when I'm out and about....

Wow. Weird! Cool! I love flying floaty things!
In want of hobby space!  The kitchen table is never stable.  Still managing to get some building done.

Especially those with wings that aren't actually talking to each other.  ;D
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! :)

Designing aircraft to fold up or dismantle and pack away on a submarine seems to have produced all sorts of odd contraptions. M2 and Parnell Peto. Surcouf and Besson MB411. Lots of Imperial Japanese things.........
"If you can keep your head when all about you
Are losing theirs and blaming it on you....."
It  means that you read  the instruction sheet

I had it in mind for some years, I don't really know why, and it had to be the twin seater ...
and finally I met a nice TA4 kit, which I combined with a beautifully shaped Twin Otter float :

Ya'know, if you refined the centerline float and retract it to the belly and get the tip floats on the wings, you got a SeaDart kinda thing going on. Hmmm. ;D

Captain Canada

Very cool. Great job on that one. And nice idea there Brad ! You gonna go for it ?
