Faraway Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 This didn't really take 16 years to complete, its just that I started this ship (in 1/72) 16 years ago, but never finished it. I sold the kit to @Starspell a little while ago, and he finished what I started and did an amazing job of it. Anyway, I always regretted never finishing it, so when I saw this kit I could not resist. So here is my attempt, it has turned out ok, not perfect, but ok. Jon 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gimme Shelter Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Very nice work. I do so love a good ship model. I guess I should be congratulating the pair of you on this build.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starspell Posted February 17, 2021 Share Posted February 17, 2021 Great job Jon, she looks really good. Hopefully you have space to display this 'smaller' one. AM certainly makes a huge difference to these ships, just wish it was not so damm expensive! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stay Safe beefy You are very kind, I’m sure there are mistakes, but praise from someone as skilled as you is awesome. But what do I do next ?

Well I think it all depends on what scale and Genre you are looking for Revell and Heller do some nice kits in different scales and the main scales of 350 and 700 are well covered with Trumpeter and Tamiya You did mention about the South Goodwin lightship if you could get one Stay Safe beefy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks to be a simple build, albeit a bit crude, I also got the PE from Atlantic Models. Really high speed service from them. Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learnt a lot with this build, especially from you and @beefy66. Snowberry is far from perfect, but it was fun and has inspired me to build more ships. Thanks for your help and advice, I'll try not to bother you too much in the future. Jon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
