1/48 Italeri Arado Ar-196A
Completed today, I built it in the markings of one of the Bismark’s Arados. Heavily weathered due to the rough life it had. If only for a fairly short time. 🙂 I have a catapult for it. That will be built soon, and will go together in a new post then. Hope you like. Thanks for looking.

Interesting work, Paul. I built the Revell version, which is also nice. I think I know the catapult you mean. The guy who makes it is at Telford every year, with other things as well. I think 2015’s pride of place was a cutaway version of a Catalina in 1/32 – a lot of interest but I didn’t see any sold (at £550 it’s easy to see why!).

Interesting looking plane, and great modelling, especially the weathering.

Looking forward to the mating with the catapult – how about a sneak preview of the catapult KIT?

Nice job. That’s the first one of those I’ve seen built.

Very nice work Paul. Weathering & paint first class too, as are the photos!
