Aichi M6A1 Seiran

Tamiya's 1/72 scale M6A1 Seiran is available online from Squadron.com

This Tamiya model was built following the manufacture´s instructions and painted with Humbrol products and mainly using an airbrush. The weathering technic was achieved using the dry brush technic, sand paper and Vallejo´s model wash in dark rust and dark yellow.

Talking about the diorama, I looked for seaplane dioramas in several web sites in order to find if there where dioramas with seaplane taking off de water and I couldn´t find anything like this. So I took this challenge, and after three weeks of work I finished it.

To achieve this taking off scene, I used simple materials such as a photo frame, silicone, Vallejo`s acrylics paints and
Vallejo´s water texture.
