Fans of Studio Ghibli will love this Porco Rosso Donald Curtis’ Fighter Seaplane Curtiss R2C-0 Model Kit, inspired by the celebrated animated Miyazaki film. It contains parts and decals for one aircraft model.

The kit includes 68 parts, with a figure of Donald Curtis piloting the aircraft. There is also a transport dolly for display included. Paint and cement are not included but they are required.

The Curtiss R3C is perhaps the finest American air racer of the 1920s. Based on the real-life historic aircraft, legends passed down in the Adriatic tell of an R3C converted without authorisation into a fighter seaplane configuration. It was piloted by Donald Curtis and engaged in dogfights with Porco Rosso’s Savoia S.21.

This is an inspiring project for experienced model makers, capturing a piece of cinema history. Supervision was provided by director Hayao Miyazaki.
