Hi Guys,
This is my Latécoère 28 (from SBS model, 1/72).
It's a resin kit, with fine parts and crisp molding.
The main issue is with the fitting of the floats under the fuselage. There is no metallic parts inside the struts and it's therefore difficult to have a proper alignment of the floats when you try to glue the struts under the fuselage. As you can see, the two floats are not in the same plan.
The other tough part is to paint red & white on the same kit....(but yes, it has nothing to do with the kit quality... ;<).
Well, at the end, it's a unusual subject, but I'm not entirely satisfy with the final result.
Have to do a better job on the next one.... hopefully.
Thanks for looking.
