Thank you so much guys, thanks for taking the time to look and comment on it.

The water is just 3 colors of water color, dark blue, green, and white.

Thanks a bunch guys, yes its 1/350 scale, and the water was made of celluclay.
First i submerged the ship in a cut out styrofoam base, then a layer of celluclay.
Once painted i added two layers of resin finished off with future floor wax.

Very nice indeed. I can see why it took so long, lots of great detail in there. The rigging alone must have taken a while. And theres me worried about rigging a biplane.

Thanks for shareing.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

Very, very nice!  

It is 1/350 scale, right?  Maybe you could repost this in the Ships Forum, too.

New for 2013, this one took me over a year to finish. Maybe thats why i only do a ship once every
few years. Its the Hasegawa kit with 3 PE kits to go with it.
