Homebee Posted June 2, 2022 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 !

wellsprop Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Yessssssssssssssssssss! This will go very well with the Airfix Chipmunk. 1
PattheCat Posted June 2, 2022 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
Ad-4N Posted June 2, 2022 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
mr.T Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 yay! No more ridiculous eBay prices for the Hobbycraft ones... 3 1
neilh Posted June 2, 2022 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
bentwaters81tfw Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Oh yes! a Bentwaters bird beckons with the Caracal sheet. 3
HMSLion Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 (edited) One in U.S. Naval Test Pilot School colors would be nice. I can scratchbuild the glider tow hook. Edited June 2, 2022 by HMSLion

Admiral Puff Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Oh YES!!! Now I can consign the Hobbycrap one to Evilbay! There's the ANARE one, a RAAF one, some crop dusters ... 1
janneman36 Posted June 2, 2022 Posted June 2, 2022 Give it to me baby aha aha, give It to me baby..and all the boy said TAKE MY MONY!!! This is a perfect subject and finally will put the Hobbycraft one into retirement…. Thank you Dorawings👌 cheers, Jan 1 1
Corky Posted June 2, 2022 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
MrB17 Posted June 2, 2022 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
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted June 2, 2022 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

tony.t Posted June 3, 2022 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
John_W Posted June 3, 2022 Posted June 3, 2022 Ooh, very nice. Can we hope fore some more Bush Planes? Norseman, Otter, Auster? 1
