Auto Credit Based on PattyMilk6's (Seaplane) Heavy I water skis

Hi! I’ve just installed the body of my seaplane, and im not sure about it. The body is much biger than the water skis, because of it needing to carry heavy loads. Here; ill explain the color regions. Red: subject to change. Im not sure how i like it currently, so im going to change it in the later models. Blue; subject to very minor change. Im happy how it looks, but it might need scaling, or need a different placement. Yellow; im currently not sure about it. It could stay, but it mostly depends on what it looks like after other changes. You guys can also tell me if you like it so i can decide. Those are the color regions. Im accepting all feedback! ~Kettle

    Perhaps you should make the floats bigger and the plane higher off the ground?

    Wow, looks awsome!
    What i like to do to avoid shapes I don’t like is, I draw a scetch on paper and use it as the background, so I don’t have to invest hours redoing it.

    Thanks! I think i might do a flying boat for my next build! Ive just been playing around with it, and making thw skis longer was just the right thing to keep it stable in the water! Thanks! @Aldriech

    @KettleKip hmm I suggest instead of using water skis, how about making a flying boat? I have little knowledge about water based sea aircraft but I do know that flying boats are best for carrying heavy loads. But I think with your current design, making the skis longer and bigger and making the fuselage bigger and longer aswell will be good enough. :) hope this helps you!

    By heavy loads, do you mean loads that exceeds a ton?
