Thanks guys- im glad you like it!

20mm gun finished.
I modified the fork and shortened it. I think it looks getter that way.
The sights have been added, and the magazine.
Schoulder supports also added.







Tomorrow i will put the gun on its mount, and take few snaps when mounted to conning tower deck.

Hope you like it.

Gun looks fantastic! Now you need to build another one for the sub, and put that one in its own display case!:rotfl:

That is the plan.

Thanks for positive comments guys. really appreciated.

Not much time for model building today, but i managed to collect the all new glass cover.
The one i ordered before, had few minor issues, and i returned it to the glass guy. Instead of repairing it, he made the new one- and it is much nicer!
Obviously the wooden plank is going to be replaced by proper 1 metre mahogany wood plank and couple of brass finials when i finish painting the boat.

Dibs on the couch, my spot to sit/lie and admire the model

It looks just awesome, and then it's going to look even more awesome when finished

Default just amazing

Siara, I've been watching this thread for a good time now, but I never posted before. But after seeing the masterpiece(and the rest as well) that is this machinegun, I had to congratulate you for your amazing work!!

my brother has this revel kit in the hold, and I'm seriously considering offering him the step by step process presented in this thread, as a gift for his anniversary!!

I cant wait for the paint to be applied!!! :p

keep up, the insanely good work!!

Wow, I never realized quite how big that model was until I saw that picture. Makes it look all the more impressive.

When this is finished you have to take some panoramic pictures so we can fully appreciate it
