Great job. I like the fact you can see the underside without picking it up.

Excellent work Ian. I particularly like pictures 9 and 10.

Lovely build, outstanding work, and so much detail.

Wow, a beauty. This must be one of my favourite aircraft and I just love the way you have posed it....

Lovely. I too am impressed with the quality of the build and filled with nostalgia. My Airfix Sunderland cost 10s 6d, and didn't get painted! You've made a fantastic job of a pre-decimal kit!

Has anyone pointed out the great rigging job on the floats yet?

Like it, just because it's old doesn't mean it has to be a dog

I built one 30 years ago and it didn't get painted either, nice white plastic !
