[tino]

Hi to all!

I come back here to show my latest model.

The model its already finished, but before I show it I will let some pictures that I took during the build.

I hope you like and sorry for my very rusty english.

Hello Tino,

Welcome back! It is good to see you again.

What you have posted thus far, looks GREAT! Everything is very clean, clear and crisp!

That hull looks fantastic. The only way to improve on it would be by filling and sanding, but you lose something, unless you put in all the weld lines, etc.. These ships aren't as smooth in real life as they look in pictures. It depends a lot on when they were made. A ship made in warm latitudes will shrink in colder waters, while a ship made in colder weather will stretch smoother in warmer waters. I have never see any ship model out of any medium able to capture that effect.

Your hull is straight and true, it's a real beauty! The underpinnings of a great ship!!

Wow your moddels in the banner are looking great that saturn rocket how big is ot. And I like your tie fighter.

 

[tino]

Thank you to all!

Zathros - To make the hull I just did it with the pieces that the kit have without any changes. The fit was very good.
Only on the sides above the water I had some small fit problems.

Continuing with chimney and with all the things that goes together with it.

 

[zathros]

That chimney looks fantastic!!

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

That alone, is a beautiful piece of work!

 

[tino]

For today I bring the hangars with supports for small boats and two cranes.

Everything looks very clean, clear and crisp.

The only battleship model I ever tried to build as a display, the old Airfix 1/700 Bismarck. Great work on an iconic ship.

Thank you to all!!

Today I bring the range finders with radars.

 

[mijob]

Those radars are looking amazing how on earth did you cut those tiny parts?

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

Those components looks AMAZING! Your knife work is TOP KNOTCH!!!

 

[tino]

Oh! I forget to tell. The radars are photo etch parts that I bought together with the model.
