Very nice! Your work on the limber holes is meticulous, and the etched-brass pieces are gorgeous. It looks like you're managing to achieve in 1/144 scale what many fail to do at twice that size.

Superb work!

Amazing! I've only done U-boats in 1/350, and never had any success with weathering - you're a master!

YoYo · 11-23-15, 12:33 PM

Thank You for opinion.

Today I did very important color accent - Lifebuoy

.

G7e finished.

YoYo · 11-24-15, 02:15 PM

Next step for wash (weathering effects) - clear and gloss spray for PCV/furniture's panels

Incredible. Your work looks so detailed and lifelike. Awesome work.

Jimbuna · 11-26-15, 09:58 AM

Awesome work

YoYo · 11-28-15, 10:26 AM

Ok, next steps, oils enamels.

Sailor Steve · 11-28-15, 11:12 AM

Aw, man, you ruined it! It looks all rusty now!
