Revell's 1:32 Arado sea plane. In the guise of one of the planes aboard the Tirpitz. The instructions call out for a (nice) decal that indicate the 100th launch, but since I found pictures that the plane had them on both sides, and only one is included, I left it off.
I added the national markings on the tail and replaced the lifting /handling cables for metal ones. Since I am not sure what color those cables where, but doubt they would be painted (the paint would flake off due to the flexing of the cables) I left them metal colored.
The dust somehow got embedded in the matt varnish, even though I painted the plane outside and let it dry there too!!!

I think you pretty much nailed the result. It looks very nice.

Well made, Erik. I don't understand why your project doesn't appear with mine in the list below this kit.

Oh yes, now I see it. I was searching for the wrong picture. I shouldn't try to do those things late in the evening...

Nice result. In case you bother: correct typo would be "Augen der Flotte". 🙂
That darn german genitiv...
