I don't know how I thought of combining the tabs with the former, it just seemed natural for this model. One of the reasons that I do these models is to honor veterans. Thank you for your service. Among the model versions that we have ready for release is an early 1970's drab US Army livery...

Building an Army Otter With the corrections in the markings made, I will show how I build the otter. Compared to many models this is a simple build, but it is peculiar in that the best way that I can figure to build it is to start at the aft end and work my way forward. First thing I do...

Depending on the detail that you want... fiddlersgreen.net has an easy to build B-29 model but it is a pretty good likeness.

In the past few weeks I have been corresponding with several people that had experience with the U-1As and I have managed to correct the ARMY markings on the Otter model. Many thanks to Don Boose who put me in touch with these folks. During this period I learned a lot of history. Otters...

Mike, I guess when you come right down to it, a real Mitchell is not perfect either and you seem to be building those imperfections perfectly into your modelsign1 I am very much looking forward to your build thread of the Otter with a full scratch built interior :cool: I am glad that you...

Actually, the build for this model is rather quick and dirty. I just wanted to know that the markings lined up OK. Took about four hours to throw it together. When I take my time I can do a better job at getting the seams tight. I really like the diversity that paper models have in...

Here are a few pictures of my latest model - a 1:48 scale DeHavilland Canada Otter: I still have a few minor pieces to glue on and all the glue was not yet dry when I took these pictures. This model, along with several other versions will soon be published by Design Group...

Seaduck found I don't remember Talespin or Seaduck, but I was curious and I did a quick web search and look what I found: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=467293 Someone is making an RC foamy of a the Seaduck. He posted 3-view drawings in the thread. A good start toward...

Beautiful model!... and a great website. -Jim G

That would make a terrific boat on Lake of the Woods - but the water is not brown enough. -Jim G

Thanks Samardza! That is a great site!... and if you are a child of the 60's, make sure you have your speakers turned on! -Jim G

Its a bird! Its a plane! Its a FROG! Not bird nor plane nor even frog - just little old me, Underdog.

RPC plans John, I conducted a short internet search and found this site: http://www.floatingdrydock.com/ptboat.htm Scroll to the bottom and it shows that they are selling plans for an RPC.

It kind of makes me wonder if someone typing a spec sheet transliterated a 1 into a 7. Might it be that the 307's wingspan is supposed to be 101 feet instead of 107 feet?

Cosmic Muffin? What a hoot! Apparently the plane-boat still exists and is called the "Cosmic Muffin" http://www.planeboats.com/Other%20Pages/Photos/index/boat%20index.html

DeWayne! I, for one, approve of your work on your website. Well done! -Jim G

I love seeing the ekranoplans being modeled - what an interesting craft. If I only lived along the Black Sea When I see people posting that they would like to build a real one I want to share my dream of a little different WIG vehicle. Look at www.universalhovercraft.com and take a peek at...

Dropping slick hard bombs from a low altitude is also not good for the health of the airplane. Might be a good strafing run! 50 caliber guns might do some harm to the hetzer - (but not the norm for B-17s)

Did anyone besides me build a 'Santa Beaver'? Anyone got pics? The one pictured on DeWayne's site is my build :)
