AndyL555 Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 Just finished RNLI Severn Class & RAF Rescue on sea with stretcher rescue. Great kit but decals to thin on the lines. Had to cut templates and hand paint. 41 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really amazing work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toryu Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 This is sooo good! I wish I could model a sea like this. A great scene of heroic action. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used a thin sheet of cardboard, toilet paper (used like papier maché) and watered down PVA. The thin PVA helped to warp the cardboard to give the effect of waves rolling in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are 'PJ Productions 1/72 Search and Rescue Sea King Crew # 721126'. Purchased from eBay & www.sgsmodelstore.com I think it was 3 sets. The seated are used inside the lifeboat.

Norseman 3:16 Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 A great scene and a talented build - well done! Can I ask, is that polyester (fabric stuffing) you have used for the sea spume around the boat? Did you spray if white before final placement?

Found it in a cupboard at home. It came as think sheet which I pulled apart and stretched. Probably used as stuffing for jacket or thin cushion.
