3D printed 72nd Cessna 206 by VFR Models

[follasha]

I've just built quite a nice 3D printed resin Cessna 206 kit by VFR Models. Its nicely detailed with quite good internal detail & not too much finishing  (sanding of scan lines) required. 

 

I chose to put mine on floats rather than the wheels provided, using Constanza Edo 3430s intended for their Piper Cherokee Six kit.  . I had to increase the height/chord of the rudder and add the ventral fin as the 206 floatplanes need more area.

Always a pleasure to see a General Aviation model built, especially when it’s done so well!

 

And, that last photo is the cat’s meow. 😊

Agree!  That last photo is a real winner.  Does she actually float?

[follasha]

Ha! No, it certainly looks like it though, its 'CGI'  water using an effect in an old Paint Shop Pro program I have

That is lovely and the last picture is fantastic. Well done on a fine model and some great CGI work in the last photo.

Very nice! I have most of VFRModels' kits (produced by BritModeller's own 'Bangseat Johnny,' I believe), and they are well done and fill a badly needed niche.

Nice Cessna! Great assembly and paintwork. It's a pity not a lot of plastic option for the general aviation subjects exist.

Harry, I may have said it on WONZ or Facebook but your builds never fail to delight me. Bravo sir, bravo!!
