Good evening IModelers 🙂

I started working on this model. The kit was a gift from a friend :). I also have Kuivalainen PE set (Eduard).
I finished the cockpit, masked canopy, made floats. I used ModelMaster RLM 02 for the cockpit. Cockpit will be painted with semi-gloss varnish.

If you have any suggestions, please write 😉

Sorry for bad English.

Cheers.
Mladen.

Mladen - no suggestions - just keep up the good work! Makes my old Airfix 196 look sparse! I didn't realize they had packaged all that PE in the Revell kit.

I look forward to seeing the finished model posted!
Mladen Janjic said 8 years, 7 months ago:

Thanks Greg 😉

There may be a slight misunderstanding. I bought PE separate from Revell kit.
Cheers 🙂

I went a little further with this beauty. Floats are almost finished, a few more little things to be done. I did some details of the underside of the wings, put the cable on both sides, a little PE detail throughout the whole structure. In the kit there is no exhaust, so I made them.

Criticism, tips, opinions are more than welcome.

Sorry for the bad english.

Cheers guys.

Good evening everyone.

I made a trolley for Ar 196. I used balsa wood, plastic, copper wire and medical needles. I took the wheel of the Me 410, they're a little bigger, but it does not bother me.
I am pleased with the result and I hope you will like it.

Sorry for the bad English 🙁

Cheers 🙂

Mladen, painstaking work on this, I really like what the photoetch adds to the kit. It always seemed more refined that the Airfix, but probably 10 years between them. Or more.
Great work on the floats, a real improvement on what they give you, which is pretty good, already.
Bernard E. Hackett, Jr. said 8 years, 4 months ago:

And the trailer is really well done! The two together will be a museum type display. Inspirational!
Your english is fine, by the way.

Very nice work Mladen.
Great scratched built trolley too.
Mladen Janjic said 8 years, 4 months ago:

thank you, and I'm glad you like it 🙂
Mladen Janjic said 8 years, 4 months ago:

thank you. I must admit that I enjoy working on trolley 😉
Mladen Janjic said 8 years, 4 months ago:

Good day.

Trolley are completed. Colored with matt Revell 9, below the Revell is ModelMaster Wood 1735, on top, dry pastels, colored pencils and graphite pencil. At the end is Mr.Hobby H20 matt warnish. I am satisfied with the result 🙂

Cheers mates!
