Bitzer Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hello mates, I just finished up the 1/350 Oliver Hazard Perry "fig 7" class from Academy which I received for Christmas. My giftor also included the White Ensign Models PE set and with a little scratching here and there I put it in a seascape. I also purchased some 3D crew from Shapeways. 28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitzer Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 No problem, I used crumpled aluminum foil over hard Styrofoam. Applied acrylic varnish overall and acrylic medium gel for the bow wave. Cotton for the white water. Sprayed color using acrylic artist paints. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan P Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 Very nice result yet again 👏👏👏 It's a nice kit to build, shame about the supplied decals 🤔 The old WEM set is also a good enhancement, you've done an excellent job on the mast railings 👍 Alan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
