Saunders-Roe SR45 Princess

Model Description

Comments

This is a very small kit of a very large aircraft. I love the Saunders-Roe Princess as it has an almost alternative-history feeling. A vision of the post-war world that could have been, but wasn’t, where people travelled the world in giant flying boats.

The kit, in 1/350 scale, is from Arsenal Model Group (Ukraine). This is the first time I’ve made a recently tooled kit and it went together really nicely.  The metal colour is AK Xtreme Metal Aluminium, Dark Aluminium and White Aluminium.

I’ve mounted the model on a paper clip, which is barely noticeable when viewed from above. Still, I couldn’t resist a bit of digital manipulation in a few shots 🙂
