Boksanski Scratch built BE-12 Russian Seaplane

Another scratch built model by Dave (BOH) Boksanski.  This is 1/72 seaplane built out of several different  model kits.  The Emily fly boat is the main piece to make the fuselage.  Aurora CF-100  engines are the bases of the turboprop engine.  The rest was sheet stryene.  Thanks goes to Charle Dunton for provide the article from his collection of Scale Modeler.

  1. I remember that article. It used about $150 in kits back then. Amazing piece of work.

  2. The Emily back than was twenty bucks. The Aurora CF-100 was about 5 bucks. Remember the Emily first release was in 1967 and the second release was 1973. Dave more than likely got these kits at swap meet in San Francisco
