Ahoy
Hello fellas I want to share this finished build on this forum to all you great modlers in here. This is a Fly model kit of the PBY Catalina Flying Boat scale 1:33 this is my second card kit build I would like to mention as quoted on papermodlers forum I would like to thank Mr. Ron Hall for makeing this kit possible a wonderfull man he is of great help to any novice who wants try his hand at card.
As to the kit anyone who wants to give this kit a go you must have a couple good models in your sea bag this kit is not inteneded for the novice. this kit at the large scale itrenders alot of scratch building possibilitys, has no fit issues at all the only negative remarck I can see there are no kit parts for the 2 Pratt and Whitney Engines only their printed fronts that are cemented in backing. I came down to a decission to cheat I made my own engines. Also noted this is the second card kit other then the scratch ones i made that I displayed on this here forum that no painting was done. for the weathering details I used water based color pencils by scrapeing shaveings from the pencils adding a little water and airbrush the color soloution on the model and seal with acyrilic. I used 50 50 Areo gloss dope.
Here are the finished attachments of this Beautifull flying boat of the past.
