Very well done for your first or any ship. As other have said, love the water effects and pictures.

I have a few of the Dragon premium kits; good value for the money! One problem is that the helo blades are waaaaay too thick scale-wise. I tried shaving some down, did not really work. Anyone who is working on these kits may want to consider an AM replacement for the helos.

Again, great job and thanks for sharing!

Excellent build for a first time build. Toast Like the way you put the ship, water and sky together. Very nice.

I love it.

What products did you use to create the water ?

Enjoy life. You don't know how long you have. Be polite. Smile - it costs nothing. If all else fails ---walk away. Enjoy life.

For your first ship, a very good effort - nice, clean build, and you did a credible job on the water as well.

Hello :)

This is my first ship.

Scale: 1/700, Dragon

Sorry for my English. I have to translate the text on Google :/

I have added a few details, but I have not to excess. The Rig I have even considered. The ship is a little too deep in the water because I tried to portray heel. Thus, it is not quite succeeded. For first time I am quite satisfied.
