P-3s rule Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 Great to see one of our Aussie ww2 workhorses reproduced so well. Very impressive modelling and end result! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do like these little ships, very much unsung hero’s. I did ‘dum down’ the rigging, I feel to replicate the ACTUAL rigging becomes too much on a small model.

Darwinism Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Great work Faraway! I used to live a couple of minutes walk from where she’s now moored in Williamstown VIC - you’ve captured her beautifully. Edited January 19, 2023 by Darwinism Forgot ships are she, not it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertie McBoatface Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I've already praised this one to the skies in the SSDGB. I still like the boat very much but the way it appears to be a little off centre (longitudinally) on the base is triggering all my tidiness reflexes. I admit that this is more my problem than yours.😆 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t see, but it leans a bit to starboard. Just wasn’t my day. Jon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to use 1/350 scale, but the planks were too wide. Jon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
