Being new to this forum I wanted to show you guys a sample of my work. This is the Model Craft 1/48th scale DHC-3 Otter kit with some modifications. The turbine nose and spinner were scratchbuilt using resin, cast from an RTV mold. The masters were carved from balsa wood. The pontoons were lengthened and cast in resin. The wheels were added making the plane an amphibian. The rigging was added for the steerable pontoon rudders and the interior was heavily modified. The passenger seats were all scratchbuilt.
Wow, that's a beauty. Thanks for giving us a look.

Yeah, nice work. The turbine Otters look like they hit a time warp, the back just doesn't fit the front but they must be a great airplane.

How cool is that! Fantastic work on such a unique subject.
Thanks guys for your comments. I have to correct something in the original post, I stated that it was the Model Craft kit, it's not, it's the Hobby Craft kit.
Thanks again.
Same complaint as your other post, dude....not enough pics!!
That's a beautiful model....absolutely outstanding.
Cheers, LeeTree Remember, Safety Fast!!!
jeaton01 Yeah, nice work. The turbine Otters look like they hit a time warp, the back just doesn't fit the front but they must be a great airplane.
I feel the same way about those Turbo Porters. I believe the Turbo Porter is a descendent of the Helio Courier, which I once saw demonstrated in the late 40s. Like the Otter, it originally had a recip on nose.
I found a couple additional pics.
