@Tang0five so I've been working on an amphib version of this with Catalina style rear retracts in the float. What a pain, the cog varies depending on the position of the float so I've had to design in a piston with a weight on to work with the retracting float to alter the cog. Do you want a sneak peak?
Yeah definitely getting there. Camo is nice but might it be hard to see the panel lines unless you did the lines in a lighter colour maybe? I’d maybe keep the lower part rendition and then go balls to the wall with detail/part count with another one - maximise the market so to speak, lets everyone enjoy tour work! @RamboJutter
@Tang0five progressing well i think. Still some tweaks to do (like for instance where the outboard trailing edge has decided to attach to the ailerons...) and camo to finish, what do you think about panel lines / striping on the wings (should i or shouldnt i?)
