Republic RC-3 Seabee / Murph´s models / 1:33

[Robert Blaschke]

I started to build this seaplane, a little bit repainted by me.

I plan to make some interior to it as well.

That is one of Aaron's great kits. Goes together very nicely. Have fun.

You're off to a great start. The Seabee is looking good so far.

Thank you.

Here is some small progress - not glued together yet, just dry-fitted.

Front fuselage with cut-outs, as I plan to put some interior inside.

How did you manage to cut out the windows and doors so neatly after assembling the parts? Clearly it wasn't possible here to just punch through the centre and work outwards.

[Robert Blaschke]

You need just some unused (perfectly sharp) razor blades (sometimes also cut by scissors to get the sharp tip) and a lot of patience and carefulness.
(And good eyes )

Yes, it was cut along the lines.

I started to create an interior. This is first step - dashboard section.
