here is the Dumas Grumman Widgeon kit # 328 modified with radial engines as so many in real life have been.

That is a superb build. Very well done.
David Duckett22-Jan-18 10:46
Exceptionally well done, as usual!!

thanks guys. it was fun to do the radial engine conversion on it. I prefer round engines and to me, this airplane just looks a thousand times better this way. The Guillow Catalina cowlings are just the right size and I think the sheets ended up costing me around $20 with shipping. The sheets included the prop hubs and the 1000# bombs which I used for the oils cooler scoops and exhaust shrouds.

The dog’s name is Auger - he and Charlie keep me company on the builds

Thank you Firebird, I appreciate your enthusiasm!

Fwiw all the animals used in this production were unharmed. The bears in the background are new..we just got back from a short stay at Sequoia and Kings Canyon. My little grandaughter just loves them so naturally poppop bought ‘em for her.

Thank you, Poppy - the Dumas kits have all been terrific to work with. I have their Hall’s Springfield Bulldog kit on deck for later this year.

Beautiful work. Although, when you have fun building it can hardly be called work.

a labor of love - if only there was a paycheck at the end
