ArnoldAmbrose Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 Gidday Mick, I think they were beautiful ships, although this one looks a little worse for wear. Superb model you've done here. Regards, Jeff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courageous Posted October 4, 2021 Share Posted October 4, 2021 A fantastic job, a lovely weathering job and looking at the state of her, she's in the right place. What are you using as a display case and from where? Stuart 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael M Posted October 4, 2021 Author Share Posted October 4, 2021 Thanks, I'm a firm believer of theory that ships do get dirty. The fact that I was raised in a port city with a big shipyard probably had some influence Display case is custom made. Every time I go to Poland to see my folks I bring something like that back with me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich G Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Love this, the detail and work put into the lower hull is amazing, it looks so good you think it's 1/350 but then you remember it's actually 1/700, simply sublime levels of detail!

Michael M Posted October 7, 2021 Author Share Posted October 7, 2021 I'm glad you like it. Next floater will be in 1/350 and I dread the area of the underwater part of hull, it'll be plenty of fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Derbyshire Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 !/700 is the scale i mostly use and 1/600 and i get no where near this standard . So BZ sir. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72modeler Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Jeez, Louise- that's an incredible model- what the others have said about the detailing and weathering goes double for me. I'm not a ship modeler, but I know museum quality modeling when I see it, and your ship is definitely that! (Are you SURE that match isn't one of those big fireplace numbers?) Mike BTW, your display base is as good as the model. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
