Alchemy Posted April 20, 2019 Share Posted April 20, 2019 A nicely unusual kit that came as part of the "Replenishment at Sea" set of 3. You get the carrier Foch / Clemenceau, an escort destroyer and this most unusual fleet oiler. It had been sitting with just the hull glued for years until, in a fit of enthusiam after finishing the traweler, i decided to do more work on this one. The bigger parts fit well, the smaller parts have lots of seam lines to get rid of. Plenty of touching up to do but its going together well so far. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArnoldAmbrose Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Gidday Alchemy, I like your choice of model. The fleet train I think is not often given the credit it deserves. Most warships cannot operate long at sea without those ships and crews. Regards, Jeff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alchemy Posted April 26, 2019 Author Share Posted April 26, 2019 (edited) More details added and touching up starting. Was hoping to have this finished for the show at Perth; but, as it is tomorrow then its not going to happen ! I may still bring it along as a WIP...

Alchemy Posted May 12, 2019 Author Share Posted May 12, 2019 Starting to get to the end part now; railings going on. Still some touching up to do, then rest of the decals for pennant numbers, a matt spray, rigging and a (very) little weathering... should be finished in a couple of months ! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
