Junkers F13 Floatplane 1:48 MiniArt

[KSaarni]

Finally I managed to finalize a build, cannot remember when I did it last time.. Probably in scale 1:48 it was the Wildcat back in 2022 and then the Kingfisher in scale 1:72 back in December 2023.

Needless to say, I'm really happy to finally finish this wonderful MiniArt Junkers F.13 Floatplane. It's been a long time since I've genuinely enjoyed building something from start to finish without losing interest even once along the way.

I did have to spend a few weeks planning and focusing on how to tackle the float gear construction, followed by a trip home to Finland for vacation. But other than that, it was pure enjoyment and a absolute pleasure to build!

Now I just need to keep my Mojo momentum alive and find the next subject!

But enough with the yada yada yada... Ladies and Gentlemen, please have a look at K-SALB in all its glory!

Wow, what an Art Deco beauty, Kari! That is some fantastic scale modeling and a great finish!

That’s a fabulous build. Good enough to go in a museum. Well done!

Excellent job. Such an interesting plane from a interesting era of transition. Really nice - I suggest you finish more models!

Beautiful build Kari! Those corrugated skinned aircraft had such a rugged look to them, and you really captured that here?

That is an absolutely cracking build Kari - just fab. It's been a joy to watch and it's great to see you building again. It's also a brilliant looking little aircraft, I can see me getting one of these kits at some point.
