Hi Lou, sending pics. of last model : Husky 1/48 (CF-BQC) and snowmobile Bombardier, (1/18) with trailer and 48 "Woody", The small (2) canoes and small snowmobile  are in 1/48. Next will make another Husky in 1/48  (CF-MAN) on skis to go with small snowmobile. The big snowmobile is for a winter scene diorama, have to make yet the Norseman, CF-GMM from Austin Airways. Those are my next 2 winter projects...Be safe. Cheers. Guy.  P.S. We have in the St. Andrew compound the "remain" of CF-BQC, CF-MAN...Plus in storage C-GCYV. Our new museum will open next spring. Next week we will move the Bellanca Aircruiser to the new museum, CF-AWR. I volunteer in restoration...

Magnificent workmanship by Guy on his 1/48 Fairchild Husky. The canoes are miniature model in their own right.

Those are all outstanding models. The Norseman certainly looks like it has been working hard. I love the weathering and scum lines on the floats🙂. It's great that you show the utility of the airplane with the aft door loading a canoe, something the Beaver does not have of course.

The Bomber on the trailer is amazing. The design certainly allowed for a good view to the interior, round windows engine compartment etc. Fantastic. My son had a chance to help out on a restoration of a Bomber in Saskatchewan when he worked there. I could not believe they were powered by a V8 engine!

Great models. I look forward to more examples of your work. Btw, is this the St Andrew outside of Winnipeg?

Guy,

The models look great. The shadow box diorama is a nice touch.
