Default Atoka's ships

Hello subsimmers

Some time ago I asked for your opinions about the 1/700 Jeremiah O'Brien liberty ship by Trumpeter
Well, I haven't posted any update, but now I'm here to redeem myself with a rather growing collection

Let's start with my debut triple build


First, Revell U Boot 1/350


My very first model just to get a hold on the assembly and the painting
I originally wanted to paint her belly black, but instead went for a gray color which turned out way lighter than i expected

Recently I repainted her with black

Not a beautiful work but hey, it's my first one

Next up was the liberty ship
Trumpeter Jeremiah O'Brien 1/700
I wanted to give her a more generic wartime look so I didn't paint extra lines nor add the decals and it still turned out nice. The underwater part of the hull is molded in red while everything else is gray
For nice little touch ups, I painted the top of the funnel, the inside of the lifeboats and the prop of course
It turned out rather sweet



Next up, Revell Titanic 1/1200
My little pride and joy
It was my 3rd build, fully painted and even went in for little details such as painting the bollards, capstans, winches, benches and the tops of railings
Being my first model to be fully painted, it turned out great imo
