Wonderful seaplane!

Cuajete
Very nice (and hard) job so far.
Following!

David Culp
Great project. Those Anigrand kits are a nice challenge.

Carlo
It's a nice looking plane, that's for sure. I hope the old 1/144 Airfix kit I found has the same presence.

Łukasz Gliński
Wow

Bernhard Schrock
A front row seat please! Watching with great interest. P.S. After reading the novel by Ken Follet (Night over water) I'm a great fan of this flying boat. 🙂

Teeage
Wow, colossus! How impressive. Front row too!

Dick 著者
Thanks gentlemen😊!
I almost start to like the 'resin challenges' that Anigrand produces..

@Carlo: the Airfix kit has the same and maybe even better presence.. The Anigrand version seems to have a more bulbous nose, and during the search for detailed photo material of this plane on the Internet (not easy..) I see more similarity in shape with the Airfix kit.

I wish I had the 1:144 Airfix decal sheet in 1:72 scale, as I need the 'Pan American Airways System' text and logo's.
Still thinking how to get that done🤔

Dick 著者
@Bernhard: 😬Nice, I like reading and searched for the title you mentioned… Very interesting, thanks! I will try to order this book.

I watched a short doc on YT lately about a Clipper that 'accidentally flew around the world'.. recommended!

Cuajete
Any progress, Dick?

Dick 著者
Hi Cuajete, yes I did finish it 2 weeks ago. Also finishing some other long time project-kits (Amodel Il-76 and the 1:72 Carvair conversion), so to be continued.

Cuajete
Thank you Dick. Fantastic job so far 👍
So it leaves the windows black?

J35J
Great work! Well done with a challenging kit!👍🏻

Zbynek Honzik
Very nice!

Dick 著者
😊Thank you all!
Still needs finishing touches, like little paint corrections, thin steering cables from fuselage to tail, PAA decals and a final clear coat.

@Cuajete: Yes, all windows are black except the cockpit windows and the little dome on the top fuselage. But as there's no interior and it was my intention to make this kit a desktop model, so it's ok this way..

Teeage
Maybe you should try Michel from blackliondecals.nl/
He makes great decals for good prices!. Ask him!

Michael Kohl
Do you know whether they are still in business? Last update on their homepage is Dec 2020 and they request the files in Corel Draw.

What a beast, with a hefty price tag, but beautiful 👍

Teeage
As far as I know they are still in business. 🤔

@Michael
SVG format should work too, as they mention "or another vector based drawing program".
That is the native format of Inkscape, and the INTERFLUG logo is available on Wikipedia as SVG file. You can modify it further, e.g. remove the lettering.

Nicolas
Cool

Finn
Well done!

Dick 著者
Thank you all mates😊!

@Tini Hendriks: thanks for the tip! I will give it a try if my decals can't be used👍🏻
