eddiesolo Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Here is another sunken submarine-made for a commission from a guy that already had one of mine. I normally do the 1/125 scale as I find these better for my ailing, cramping hands but, they are scarce and can be expensive so a 1/144 scale was used instead. She is all done has been paid for and is off to her new home. Si. 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArnoldAmbrose Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Gidday Eddiesolo, very authentic-looking marine growth on the hull, the big dent (depth charge?) is a nice touch. Regards, Jeff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ratch Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Did you build up the corrosion with powders? Very effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Jeff. Hi Jeff, many thanks for popping by and the nice comment. Yeah, it is a depth charge, I normally do hatches open but thought this one closed, only one periscope is partially up and the conning tower equipment is in a semi up position, so a quick crash dive-two depth charges-one damaged the rear gun and railings the other caused the buckling followed by the decompression force. Well, that's the gibberish I am telling myself. 😃 9 hours ago, Vince1159 said: Another masterpiece .... Cheers Vince, appreciate it mate. 8 hours ago, Ratch said: Did you build up the corrosion with powders? Very effective Hi mate, no, I use a very, very fine sand, this leaves enough detail but also a more rough, growth like look. Glad you like it. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan P Posted September 7, 2019 Share Posted September 7, 2019 That's a brilliant rendition of a wrecked boat, really impressed with the textures and colours as well as the realistic damage. Great job 👍 Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great job 👍 Alan Bless you Alan, so pleased you dropped by and for commenting. Glad that she looks right, you always worry if you have got the look correct-especially if it is for someone else. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
