Homebee Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Next Dora Wings project is 1/48th (and later in 1/72nd) de Havilland Canada DHC-2/L-20A/U-6A Beaver kits. 👍 At last a post-WWII aircraft kit from Dora Wings !

PattheCat Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Too good to be true AND in my preferred scale too! Don't tell me that the floatplane version is scheduled, please 'cause it's already too much for my poor heart. Thanks guys 🇺🇦. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad-4N Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 After succeeding to track down a Hobbycraft Beaver after many years, Dora pulls this? Yeah, you're right, I am gonna get one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilh Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 A subject that has needed a new kit for a long time, like so much of the Dora wings catalogue, and lets not forget, these guys are in a country that is experiencing total war. Greatest respect. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corky Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Giddy up😎 Finallly! I can't wait as I will do one on floats that I have stick time on. Boy were in a great age of technology and new kits. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB17 Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 Wow! Excellent choice by Dora Wings. There are so many of these iconic aircraft still in service (flying over my house daily). I look forward to this in both scales. Having painted a lot of Beavers in 1/1 scale, this will be a kit I will buy more than one of. Hopefully they got in touch with Viking Air, who possess the blueprints. There are a lot of different window configurations, as well as stabilizer strakes, different float types both amphibious and water only, wheel skis etc. And it is a rivet monster, masking over the rivets was a bit of a pain. Although there are turbine conversions on Beavers, they are not as numerous as its big brother the Turbine Otter which itself is overdue for a new kit. Good news! No more ridiculously priced Hobbycrap kits. I don’t do FB, so I can’t comment there. Jeff 😃 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted June 2, 2022 Share Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) Now this is one kit Im willing to spend the prices Dora kits go for. Ive been wanting to do a Beaver floatplane for ages and I will be buying this. Edited June 2, 2022 by Corsairfoxfouruncle 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony.t Posted June 3, 2022 Share Posted June 3, 2022 One with floats would be irresistible. Glad they're still out there being creative. Wonder what's happening with the 1/72 Dore Wings Fairey Delta FD.2 ? Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Due to errors in the first 3d model, we will make a completely new one. 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
