    The base really provides a great backdrop for this model, Mike (@sandbagger). Always hard to figure how to display a seaplane, but your solution looks great.

    Hi all
    The final part of the Macchi M.5 is now fitted.
    This is a real wood laminated propeller with metal erosion tips.
    It was made by Alexey Belov at 'Proper Plane', based in Ukraine.

    I'll post completed model shots soon,
