I started with Revells Arado for another round: this time I aim to get a representation of a civil floatplane, used in Sweden in the mid 40´s. Decals are from "Topdrawing 14", I trustfully hope they will work as good as they are looking...
You can see three building steps, next will see the decals fixed and the cowling painted blue. I am quite pleased with that subject -and looking forward to finsh that nice looking floatplane in the very near future 🙂

Hi Roland, interesting colors. This seems to be a really unique Ar196!

Looking forward to seeing this one finished. Looks like a very interesting paint scheme.

I am pleased you are interested! As soon as I got to know about that version I had to have that Kagero decals...
Look at that site (in German language) to get a very informative "biography" of that special Arado. It´s an article from "Flugzeug Classics" illustrated with rare pictures of the late SE-AWY.

Yesterday I got the decals applied, the parts of Kagero/ Cartograph proved to be of excellent quality and have been a pleasure to use.
Thank you mates!

I really like the variation in the silver, and thanks for showing how you did it! The engine looks great too!

The Swedish Arado got finished wirhout any further troubles; I did a decent and, as I hope, adequate amount of "wear and tear" similar to the condition shown in the few pictures of the real thing.
That was a rather dense build; enabled by the excellent and innovative Revell moldings and the trouble-free Cartograph decals. Anyway, for me it will be the last Arado floatplane for a while... 🙂

Well now you should be able to build them without using a construction manual😉 Great stuff mate, very nice!

Michel, Christian, I recommend to everyone that fine Revell kit- even if the inovative canopy construction is a little bit of an unresolved problem to me. Your comment makes me quite proud, thank you both!

Und wieder eine erstklassige Arbeit von Dir - gratuliere! Kannst Du mittlerweile eine Arado 196 blind zusammen bauen? So wie wir es damals beim Bundesheer gelernt haben, ein Sturmgewehr blind zu zerlegen und wieder zusammen zu setzen.

Hallo,
Stefan, vielen Dank! Naja, ich vermute einmal, dass der blinde Zusammenbau mit der Arado derzeit besser funktioniert wie mit dem StG 77... 🙂
Jens, beeindruckendes Worte die mich sehr motivieren- danke!

Great job and very nice detailing work as beeing a land surveyor i would say the map on radio navigator station is 100% accurate !

Thank you mates!
Fab, you are right 🙂 Have you seen the set square on the navigators table- and the divider? Revell has definitly a sense humour 🙂

WOW! That was a stunning build Roland. It was posted the year before I joined ScM so I've not seen it before.
Hope you are doing well and your injury isn't causing you too much discomfort.

I appreciate your feedback - thank you! That was actually one of my first "three-part projects" where I got stuck on one topic, so to speak. Gorby, thanks for asking, luckily I'm well looked after. As I only move around with crutches and my wife cooks for me, I just have to make sure I don't put on any weight in the next six weeks 🙂

Thank you Zbynek, I was also glad to have found such an attractive and rare mark at Kagero/Topdrawing. The decals, I remember, were wonderful to work with.

Merci pour ta visite Roland. Je viens de terminer mon Ar 196 au 1/72ème, alors forcément je suis sensible au tiens. Bravo il est magnifique !!

Je te remercie de tout cœur ! Je comprends ta préférence pour le 1:72, mais si tu veux essayer l'échelle 1:32, je peux vraiment te recommander l'Arado 196 de Revells 🙂
Thank you very much! I understand your preference for 1:72, but if you want to try the 1:32 scale, I can really recommend Revell's Arado 196 🙂
