    I believe this post is successful because a sea plane-bomber is something very uncommon that everyone wants to try. I like it

    i really like this design since you placed the engine on top of the plane, this irl prevents from any salt water from entering the engine and damaging the blades. Also i like the color scheme, and you used a H tail for this plane, which is suitable for those kind of propeller planes i guess since they can fly slower than other propeller planes without stalling, and well, it fits

    overall a good looking sea plane, low parts count, realistic engine placement and other stuff, although you should make hollow cockpits since i dont like the plain and boring fake glass on the front. i'll give it 9.5/10
