Sweet build man! The camo paint job is very well executed.

Google translate of Ryszard's text:
Grotesque model of wodnopłatowca Air Force "Adolf"
It is the plane He-115 B-1 in the colors 1./KFIGr.406 database Trondheim, Norway in 1942 with This aircraft took part in the famous attack on convoy PQ-17 as a curiosity may be the fact that the aircraft possessed floats with reinforced construction, thus beyond the landing on the water, it could also do it on land covered in snow. Of course was not too difficult since these planes mostly operated in the far northern regions

That's a very nice looking He-115. Great camo and weathering.

Ryszard,
Simply a fantastic build. Your painting, and especially your weathering has that "well used but not abused" look.

Hi Ryszard,
Excellent work indeed! The model is not easy to build, especially the floats so you have really done a great job...

Hi Ryszard
Very nice! I really like the weathered temporary white paint. The kit would look great sat on a beaching trolley.
All the best
