@Dragoranos How free to modify the design?
1) must be a seaplane
2) with pusher props over the wings
3) the main hall will be used for flotation, with two pontoons under the wings for balance. It must not be a float plane (like floats attached to a land plane).
3) can be a medium or small as far as it looks believable
4) can be a design from WW2-era to modern-day design
5) any livery, civilian or military
beautiful. It will be even better if you give some degree of dihedral to the wings so that it will 1) make the steadier flight and 2) avoid hitting the water's surface while landing. Spotlighted!
I created a concept drawing of a seaplane, depicting similar designs from two different eras: one from World War II and another from the modern day. This is for your inspiration for my latest "Rebuild This Challenge."
@Boeing727200F @TheUltimatePlaneLover @Graingy I am curious about why you guys got a similar-looking avatar/logo. Also, where did it come from? I saw at least 8 or 9 similar ones. Is it a group?
There is still a long way to go before I finish this giant transport aircraft, which is inspired by Miyazaki's film "Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind." I want to add more detailed cockpit instruments for the two pilots, as well as for the flight engineer and the navigator's room. I'll also be including a staircase, cargo doors, and many other features. There's a lot of work to be done. The flight experience is very smooth, and I can’t wait to share it!
I built this Soviet-era Tu-16 medium bomber nearly two years ago. It flies extremely steadily and smoothly, thanks to its large anhedral wings. However, I haven't finalized it yet, and it's taking me a long time to do so. It currently has a parts count of 244. I want to replace it with custom wings and at least a complete VR cockpit and instruments inside
@Yukla27 You cannot move in the game (PLAY mode); it is decorative. In designer mode, you can swap the bombs for air-to-air missiles. I have calibrated those missiles.
@Boeing727200F Thanks
@PaintBrushSP yes,, that's the challenge
+1@PaintBrushSP Please stick with the props for this challenge. I don't want to alter the rules once it is set. Thanks
+1wow, nice. Spotlighted!
@DwiAngkasaAeronautics it's okay
+1great work. saved to my fav. and the weapon display is so cool

I am spotlighting the good ones right away!
@FordEscort thanks
@MrPanzer my pleasure
@Johnnyynf its fine,
@Erc90F4RU, if you are interested, I have built some seaplanes before, check them out. Mostly adding buoyancy in the fuselage blocks.
@AviationLoverGEEK445 The winner will be announced one week after the challenge closes.
@WINGSIRONAVIATION You can make a big or small plane as far as it follow a similar concept: Pusher props over the wings. That would be fine for me.
beautiful. It will be even better if you give some degree of dihedral to the wings so that it will 1) make the steadier flight and 2) avoid hitting the water's surface while landing. Spotlighted!
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 I see, Thanks
+1good try! thanks
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 no problem, he have given me the credit
Thanks for the first entry, Good luck for the challenge - Spotlighted!
+1@ToastedRainbowSandwich Yes
@ThatRandomCouchPotato please try
+1Great job
@MIGFOXHOUND31BSM26 go for it. My sketch is just a reference. No need to be super exact.

@Solent You have to rebuild this.
Great work, amazing
+1beautiful collection

+1@TheMouse @Graingy @TheUltimatePlaneLover Lol, that was fun, now I know
@Graingy, first, I thought if these were brothers, but when I discovered like 12 or 13 similar ones, I was like, "hmm... wait a minute"

+1@Graingy I am touching grass while out for a photo shoot most of the time... lol

Enjoy. T for tag.
@NTH those were brake flaps to slow down while landing
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries Maybe I will finalize this with the Indonesian Airforce livery - with vintage cruise missiles under each wing.
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries Of course, I would love to see it. I have been to a few museums in the US, and I posted some videos on SP,
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries ah, interesting story
very nice and interesting, keep up the good work.
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries wow
@ReynaldoHeavyIndustries interesting history

nice work, very beautiful
@IFVuser Ah,,, Dornier Do-X has 12 engines
awesome. They called this plane "Six turnings, four burnings" since it has six props and four jets

nice
Looks good
+1nice work
I missed those good old days we were starting out on SimplePlanes
