The floats. The largest come from Arado 196 B by Revell. It has been shortened reduced in height but widened and the bottom vacuformed.

Thanks to Revell France after sale service.

For the small floats, plugs in balsa.

The big. I used Contrail profiles reinforced with a stainless steel tube

Since nothing is stuck, it may seem wonky........

The engine cowl support must take into account that the propeller axis is shifted up and left.

Hi,

 

I am really impressed by your work on this model. I've also browsed all your thread on Master 194 forum. Your model is inspiring! I wish I could build a masterpiece like this some day :)

 

Best regards,

Peter
