haneto Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 (edited) Happy new year to every one and all the best to you and your family. This is 1 of the last 2 works I finished in 2020(actually finished before midnight yesterday!). This full resin kit is released by a Chinese local small brand called Ostritch Model, which their boss sent me as a gift in this summer contest. So I built it with sea sailing scheme which is my very first time. It's really small model but I tried to catch some feeling and restore experience for sea sailing effect. Thanks for watching!

AntPhillips Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 Another fantastic model, to capture that amount of detail in 1/700 is just mind blowing. Great presentation with the seascape too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plasticbasher Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 That is just fantastic work, as is your HMS Chatham. Such impeccable workmanship and in 1/700! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa4ways Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 What a beautiful Kit, an absolutely great build, I'd love to build one of the old Leander's, but as you know, no one is manufacturing a 1/350 scale version, I think the biggest is an old 1/600 scale that Airfix did, brilliant finish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst expensive compared to your average injection moulded kit, they are also a lot more detailed and contain everything you need except adhesives, paint and a whole lot of patience to produce a detailed miniature ship.

The Leanders are great kits I've got one of Peter's HMS Cleopatra in the stash, along with a Glamorgan, Puma and Hurworth, trouble is he has so many great kits and my wallet just cant keep up 🤣 Happy modelling Ant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob 1 Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 (edited) This is a very finely finished production of this classic RN frigate. The clean build and subtle weathering are very good, particularly in this scale. Edited January 18, 2021 by Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
