Nice fined .Always thought it would be a great plane for a dinosaur themed plup game, it has a prehistoric look about it. (Well to me anyway.)

Those are really nice planes.

I suspect p&p to the UK would be more than the kit, but the downloads are tempting

1/64 is railway "S" scale, and is 28mm, but it could look a bit tight against modern figures.

You can always adjust the print size to get just the right scale.

Not always. Scaling upwards can lead to problems with resolution in a bitmapped image, or the square-cube law in the case of a vectored image.

Not really relevant, as it just becomes even more unwieldy trying to make the aircraft, essentially scenery most of the time, the right scale for figures that are a different scale in each direction you measure. You're not going to try cramming the figures aboard the aircraft, are you?

Also, less of a problem now that Ecardmodels are updating their store.



Buy the bigger ones and shrink.

Those paper kits look quite good and chocked full pulp style. My problem with paper kits is that I have always been ham-handed and my friends aren't much better so paper does last long on our tabletop.

Probably an actual Porco Rosso kit with no conversion needed! There's several available from various Japanese manufacturers.

Yes, it's Porco Rosso's SAVOIA S.21 SEAPLANE by FINEMOLDS. 1:48 scale.

Figured this was the perfect addition to this thread.
3D printer version of the L-16 Seaduck from cartoon Talespin. Can't think of a better aircraft that screams Pulp Adventure! Haven't had a chance to download it so I'm not sure what the base scale is...
