Giangio Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Hi everyone, This is my 1/72 H8K2 Emily, unfortunately the right tail stabilizer isn't perfectly at 90° with the vertical tail plain I hope that you guys will like this massive seaplane as much as i do 48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldy Posted December 17, 2018 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Really nice model. What a beast - like a Sunderland on steroids! The stabiliser problem is the kind of thing you only notice when you have taken photographs! It still looks great. Cheers Malcolm 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fit is almost perfect, the nose needs a bit of squeezing to achieve a perfect fit, overall a fantastic kit. Just watch out for the decals, i didn't liked it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CMSCHLOM Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 What a beauty! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Law Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 I have to say it again. Excellent build. I know how big this is because I bought on awhile ago. Worth every penny. Might not get built like my Me 323 unless I win lotto and get my own place again, but worth having in the stash. I have several kits like this I call my lotto stash.;-) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc72 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 Beautiful and impressive beast! Imagine it flying low and straight towards a target to make a torpedo attack, probably not adviseable against a well-defended ships with an aircraft of this size! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kapam Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 Beautiful rendition of an impressively large machine - even in 1/72 scale. Your faded IJN green and paint chipping looks perfect to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJBud1 Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I have always loved the Emily, or really any Japanese sea plane in general (my favorite is probably the H8K3 with 5 20mm cannons instead of 7.7mm MG's as on the H8K2, or the biplane-fighter-seaplane F1M2). You have done her justice, I love the minute chipping towards the front. Looks great 😃 RJ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am going to do an early PBY-5A with the camo scheme used until may 1943 (the one with the insignia with the red dot in the center and the rudder with the red/white stripes). I will see how many people are interested on this build (still waiting for the extras to arrive at home) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
