prowler0000 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Builds like this make me wish I could do 1/700 scale...! Nice workmanship, Chewitt!! p.s: is the deck real wood? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxy Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Very nice Diorama Chewitt mate. The trawler and crew adorning the decks of both ships give it a very natural look. Very well done on such a small scale with so much detail. Cheers foxy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jockster Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Chewitt mate, another impressive build, I can only hope to achieve in 1/350 the level of detail and quality you consistently produce in ships half the size. Lovely! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray S Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 That is brilliant! I am waiting patiently for a Round Table class trawler I have ordered from WEM but they are having to set up their casting in-house now so I am not sure how long I need to wait. Not a problem for me, and your build is a great inspiration. Oh, and the Renown is pretty good too. As Jockster says the quality you produce is lovely. All the best, regards from Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Holy moly, that is impessive. it would be impressive in 1/350, in 1/700 I'm quite lost for words but superb, amazing & fantastic are all jostling for places. Steve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mick b Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Excellent work Chewitt, good to see the Bootnecks fell in by the aft turret! Nice touch. The trawler is in a class of its own too, hope WEM produce that in 350th one day. Cheers Mick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shar2 Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Another cracker of a build Chris. You've really got an eye for a neat little scenario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forlornhope Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 Shes finished up very nicely and the trawler is awesome as well. Can I ask what the tug is in the link to the tug thread? And having those fellas lined up like that near the aft turret is very cool. What do you use to attach them to the deck? You must have some very fine tweezers to get them lined up so straight and close together Good job there Sir Cheers Callum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
