S-boat 55 Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 (edited) Here is my latest completed project, I say project but in truth these subs are so small they could be knocked out pretty quickly. This is the Revell version, overall pretty easy to build and quite detailed really, even if the edges are a bit soft. I've taken an age with it as its essentially a keep your sanity project whilst working on my two carriers which have been slowly stalling. So finishing this off has also been a mojo restarter thankfully. I added eduard etch set for it which is basically railing and a couple of small details and a little bit of rigging aside that its out the box. She's pained by brush with humbrol and colour coats, then tried a pin wash on top of windsor and newton galleria gloss coat - didn't go well so it because a general all over wash, maybe it needed more gloss to work better. I matt coated it using W+N galleria again, I find it doesn't brush on well so I'll airbrush it next time. Overall its come out okay I guess, might do another one at some point, Thanks for looking Sam Edited September 25, 2022 by S-boat 55 24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2996 Victor Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Very nice work! I like the wash and weathering as it brings out the detail. Excellent! Cheers, Mark 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bissyboat Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I did the same sub 7 years, but I almost butchered the model. Your take on it is top drawer. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
