I think YAMATO would be very proud looking at his ship under Louis hands!


Louis? Are you gonna build a sub? someday, somehow?

Prosit Nannu Pec!

This gonna be an eyectacher, love the deck!

PS - While you are at it Lou, give the anchor chain a Burnt Umber wash and some touch ups with Burnt Sienna, to give it that used rusty look, I think will add some colour and contrast on that area!

Prosit again!

Ivan

Will do Ivan already had it in mind....will do it with final touches before giving it a coat of matt varnish...tanks el presidente.....:

The beast is coming on nicely...posting some pics of the triple AA machine guns...have to make thirty of them and 6 40 cal AA guns which are a bit bigger...a very tedious and eye bashing job..believe me...Centre superstructure is more or less ready.....attached railings, mast and a few figs...got to get this beast ready for the expo I hope....hope u enjoy the pics

I am étonné! Dejjem unika!

wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great work lou , just a little comment on the aircraft, I think that the yellow leading edge is a tad too big, but could be my impression.

Those are decal strips and then retouched with paint.....as a matter of fact was a bit apprehensive about them and I thought they were a trifle too wide ....and I think Joseph is right so if I can have more feedback from you aviation experts ...it will be appreciated....they can be easily corrected....
tanks for your kind comments guys
