Ruddy cheek!  :wacko:

I did that AGES ago! They pinched my idea almost exactly!  :o  :banghead:







Even the trolley's almost the same too!
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

'Imitation,' etc...  ;)

But you had yours done all this time, and they've only just caught up!  :thumbsup:

Of course to make a believable single main float 190 floatplane you'd need to use something more along the lines of the float from a Kawanishi E15K. The A6M2-N float is far too small to support the much heavier FW 190 which is similar to the E15K in terms of weight.

I used He 51 floats on mine.  Even less buoyant... :unsure:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.  Revelling in numptytism.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed, badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry.
