Michael M Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 (edited) Hello again. Haven't been active lately, because i had to finally finish my long lasting paper project (over 5 years, my personal record up to date ), but now Fluffy and HERSELF are back. As mentioned in title its a Dragon Smart Kit, I also have Master Model barrels, Eduard PE fret, Veteran Model Flakvierlings and donated main decks of Flyhawk set. We'll see what will come out of that bit odd mix The crew is manning the hull: Edited August 13, 2017 by Michael M 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael M Posted December 18, 2016 Author Share Posted December 18, 2016 (edited) I wasn't asleep, even though it might have looked like it Temporary base in place, Hull more less filled ( will see after primer ) PE decks in place. Needs just few bits and IT will get primed..... Edited August 13, 2017 by Michael M 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael M Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 (edited) Thanks, I was building all the time, I just thought my paper toys won't be very interesting to you. That's what I was working on since the little U-boot: http://forum.ipmsireland.com/topic/10213243/6/ Edited December 21, 2016 by Michael M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longshanks Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Hard to believe your torpedo boats are paper !! I feel that Maritime Modelling of that level should be on this forum no matter what the medium Kev 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael M Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Now I'm finally back to my little shipyard, so as they say vorwarts!!! It's actually not bad after this first cote of primer, only few places require further attention. Nazi b@stards always look good in this colour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

longshanks Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 Very effective, are you going to let us in on the secret recipe?? Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael M Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Veeery simple: hairspray, two flesh colours and my young lad's old toothbrush Is that clear enough recipe, or should I do SBS? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael M Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Nice one, but mine is after the 'Barbara' mod. so less main guns, more AA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73north Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 a great read ( and source ) is German Destroyers in WW2 by MJ Whitley good luck with the build , the Barbara refit , should be fun to source the brass barrels for the 20mm AA guns ! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bangor Lad Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 Great looking build. Really enjoying watching the progress. Thanks 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael M Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 Oh i have full barrel set from Master Model plus flakvierlings from Veteran, so no prob there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael M Posted January 29, 2017 Author Share Posted January 29, 2017 Bit of progress, Hull more less done, just needs some green stuff below water line, but it'll have to wait until the rest of it is dry. Fluffy got some high ground over herself, as brief as it will probably be Thanks for following. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
