thanks all !

yes, the single float Ar196 did exist, but not exactly with the same float attachement ...

and Kitty Hawk do a 1/32 Kingfisher, so a twin float version in that scale is do-able, for those who would wish  ;)

Pretty cool, man!  And once again I find the "wire canopy sans glass" strangely appealing.  Like you (from last time), I sort of wonder why it wasn't included, but then again, it's an itty bitty scale so sort of makes sense.

Somehow a single float Arado looks just fine, but a twin float Kingfisher is totally weird.  :o

Both models look terrific though, nonetheless.  :thumbsup:

To me, it's the reverse: I really like the Kingfisher's looks, the Arado looks awkward.  Both interesting and well-done, of course.

whiffing is about exploring the unfamiliar, which can be uncomfortable, a bit sometimes  ;)

and as someone said, when comments are disagreeing (legitimately), I feel in agreement with myself  ;D

the Saab 21 has some elegance, and I had a DHC Otter in my stash ...

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

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

I found this 1/60 ready-built figurine (NewRay) and added floats (from a 1/72 Twin Otter);
I nearly painted it blue, but its original colors only required a red complement

Funny :thumbsup:
Is the spraying device made for algae culture? :unsure: ;D

Dispersant for oil slicks?
