Coming along nicely, John.

I really need to build my 1/72 Walrus - so I'll be watching your project with interest! I would vote for wings unfolded - I like birds configured in the role they were designed for, which is to fly!

Thanks all for your feedback,

@airbum, @fiveten, @adrianstarling, luckily the ejector marks were only protruded. Scraping was sufficient to get rid of them and start with a clean canvas.
@eb801, still expecting a bit more hurdles than just a breeze thru.
@gkittinger, you convinced me and you are fully right, planes should be flying and they need wings for that, although this one can float as well. So it will be unfolded.

Glad to see you chose wings unfolded. Shows off the Walrus better.

That interior paint looks - well smooth is not the right word with all the stuff - right! Luckily I have two in my stash, so I can make one folded and one unfolded - but that will not happen in the near future, and I shall be able to use your log as a reference once I get started 🙂

Interior update,

Still a lot of work to be done but at least it gives an indication of what it will look like.

Looking at the build from our iModeler friend Giannis Asimakos @mfcg, I also decided to do some scratch work and add levers (not sure if this is the correct word) which control the rudder and the elevator. I want to attach cables to these levers which go along the fuselage towards the tail.

Right side of the fuselage dry fitted to see how it looks like.

These are my first ever scratch build parts (except for seatbelts) which I add to a model.

That interior looks like it was fun to paint. How much will be visible, do you think?

John,

I also have this kit,will use yours as reference.

Following with interest.
