Arado 196 Floatplane


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Now that the magazine it was published in is no longer available, I can show pictures of the Revell 1/32 Arado 196 that was built for Airfix Model World, where it made the front cover. It was done using the Eduard PE set for the exterior, and was mounted on an aftermarket resin beaching trolley. Some 'beach scene' photos first, followed by a few shots from the in-progress stages. Hope you like it...

-Very nice model, I think the the dolly is scratch built which give the model its"in duty" look . Did you use the HPH clear resin canopy as it looks like? the multipart kit conception of the kit one is not the best idea Revell people have had for such a nice kit

Thanks for the replies, folks. 🙂 

 

IPMS19, the trolley was an aftermarket resin kit from Master-X, so it wasn't scratch built- just scratched! 😉 The canopies are the kit parts, just very carefully assembled and creatively masked to hide the joins.

 

Cheers,

Dean
