Rob Probert 643 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 Hi all I hope you’re all keeping well? I thought I’d show you the latest model that has been keeping me amused through lockdown. It’s the Anigrand Craftworks 1/72nd scale Martin 130 Flying Boat. As usual with Anigrand kits it was not an easy build. Paints were from Xtracolor.

SAT69 2,347 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I've never built a resin kit and I'm aware of Anigrand's reputation, so I'm very impressed with your work. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Toryu 2,085 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Excellent work and a rare airplane, too! I love the large flying boats but no chance in my preferred quarter scale. All the nicer to see one built with so much perfection. Interesting colours - is this the US Navy 3(4)-tone camouflage? 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfhound32 390 Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Excellent job Rob! Looks really great. How was the overall quality of the resin parts of this kit? The Anigrand Boeing C-98 Clipper is on my wishlist... 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Thank you - yes the scheme is the US Navy 3-tone version of grey, intermediate and dark blue. 23 hours ago, Wolfhound32 said: Excellent job Rob! Looks really great.

However in true Anigrand style the fit was not the greatest and it took a lot of work to get together and the model in reasonable shape. I've built a few now and they've all been the same - their subject matter is great, though! Rob Edited June 15, 2020 by Rob Probert Link to post Share on other sites
