PergerCRO Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Yesterday i finished my first ship It is Academy's USS Indianapolis in 1:350 scale. I don't have enough expirience to say is this good model, or not, are details correct and that stuff, but it's my first and I am happy. The stand under the ship is home made with help from family and friends. The pictures are here so please leave comments no matter are they good or bad Thank you. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevej60 Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Excellent build and finish,I would be happy with that result after all my years modelling let alone a first ship build. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 (edited) You couldn't have picked a better kit to start ship modelling, and you've done a really good job. The colours especially look spot on, and a nice base and mounting. Well done! Edited July 7, 2015 by Brokenedge Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PergerCRO Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 Thank you. I am just not sure are colors ok or maybe a little too dark ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Deck Blue was a very dark colour. It's possible that Indianapolis was painted in the very late war grey shades, but your colours look very good for the standard USN Measure 22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PergerCRO Posted July 7, 2015 Author Share Posted July 7, 2015 That's great then because It was my intention to paint it in measure 22, beause it was the one used in 1945 when it was sinked.... Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
